 The piano has been in Colorado for almost all of its life and is stable.

The piano has been reconditioned, the hammers were re-shaped, the hammer line has been regulated as have the repetition springs, and the action was cleaned a few years ago.

What can I say?  The best piano in the world.  The piano has been maintained by if not the best piano tuner in Colorado, then one of the best.  There is a small crack at the far end of the sound board which has been photographed for you.  The crack has no effect on the sound.  There is no buzzing.  The piano performs fine.  You are welcome to come and play the piano prior to delivery.  After delivery, the piano is considered delivered and accepted.  My understanding is that this piano has always been in residential use, never on a stage.  It has played light classical and show tunes, the closest it has gotten to rock & roll is probably Simon & Garfunkel or Cat Stevens.  It is played, maybe, once a month, or every other month.  It is a waste to have this piano just sitting.  It is more a piece of art in our living room than a musical instrument.  When friends have visited and played the piano, first of all, they say, "I am complete now, I have just played a Bosendorfer."  And that this is the best sounding and playing piano they have ever played.  While there are the Steinway followers and the Bosendorfer advocates, there is no argument, that this is one fine piano.
MODEL 290

It is the only concert grand in the world to have nine sub-bass notes, down to bottom C, giving it a full eight octave compass keyboard. These extra notes enable some compositions to be accurately performed, which were originally scored with lower notes, by composers such as Bartók, Debussy, Ravel and Busoni. Special construction features have a very positive influence on the overtones produced when the piano is played, and helps to create the maximum range of both power and volume, and allows the smallest subtle variations in sound to be heard, across the whole range of the piano.

The piano has been in Colorado all of its life and is stable.  It was originally from the Stanley Hotel Estate in Estes Park, Colorado, where Steven King wrote the Shining. 

Considering to replace this piano would cost over $150,000.00, the asking price is commensurate with the replacement cost.
