This Irmler Hupfeld phonola piano is one of the latest phonola instruments, equipped with Hupfeld's innovative metal pneumatics. It is in its original condition - but due to use and material aging it needs a complete renovation to be playable again as a piano and as a phonola. The body also needs to be renovated. As it is a large Irmler concert piano, it is also and above all something for sound lovers as a hand-playing piano.
