Ampico instruments are rare in Europe - even rarer are pianos with an Ampico mechanism, such as this Marshall & Wendell Ampico piano. In addition to great American music, a very extensive classical repertoire is also available - including the unique rolls recorded by S. Rachmaninoff. The piano is in good original condition and unrenovated. A complete restoration would make its full potential visible and audible again.
