Piano
I have a vintage mahogany piano in need of full restoration--tremendous amount of work, but a gorgeous instrument. Looking for ideas about how to sell locally or if there's a charity/school/conservatory, etc. that could get work done on it, to donate.
Thanks for your input.

Try the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music on 7th and Lincoln.

What's the maker? How old? There are a few vintage pianos that are worth the trouble, but many, depending on the condition of the action and the soundboard, will never come back to their former glory, unless you were to essentially rebuild them from the ground up, and that's a major expense. The guy who tunes our piano is really competent; he may be able to tell you if it's worth the bother:

They make GREAT firewood though.
