looking John Broadwood & Sons cottage upright piano, made in 1861, has also
a very charming sound. The stringing is bi-chord and features a true 'Una
Corda' pedal which shifts the entire action and keyboard. The action is very
responsive.
Anybody will agree that the book-match Brazilian Rosewood finish looks great,
especially in a period interior.
