Looking at two vintage small grands- want comments, feedback...
Mason "A" from 1905, rebuilt 2 yrs ago, pinboard, strings, hammers, felts, etc. Case not bad but has sunburnt area on top from sunny window. $7k
Mehlin, mid-1920's, no exact date yet, also rebuilt as above, basically unused since, pretty decent refinish on case. $6k
Whaddaya think?

Original action in each? Might want to try them out and see how they feel.
