1959-'60 Magnavox Concert Grand

I don't believe we've seen this one. Looks nice. No Multiplex adapter. The usual too-high price.

Oh, but the seller is offering "free local pickup." How generous--no extra charge for you to show up and take it away.

I'm wondering what transportation costs are doing to the sales/desirability of Concert Grands and similar large instruments. Even if you were to go get it yourself, gas prices would make even that fairly spendy. It might cost $1000 or more to have this thing crated and shipped from back east out here. This instrument is not perfect, so you'd be in it $2500 before restoration expenses. That would make it not worth the effort for many collectors.
