Finding the Serial Number

PIANO AGE | ARCHIVES | APPRAISALS | PIANO TYPES | BLUEBOOK VALUE  | SELL A PIANO

The serial number of a piano tells you the year your piano was made. Piano manufacturers place serial numbers in various places.  Pianos also have numbers other than serial numbers, such as case and part numbers.  Some pianos do not have serial numbers, in those cases we can identify the approximate age by the design, and a photo will help identify the approximate age.
