Free Piano

You haul it, you can have it. It's in great shape too. If you feel like donating something to me for it, I'd be interested in small pistol primers or 9mm / .40 S&W projectiles. Thanks!

**EDIT**

Donation of anything is NOT required! Seriously, if you can haul it you can have it!

Many years ( 50+ years) ago my dad bought my grand parents place in Michigan. It came with a piano - an old upright. No one wanted it, tried giving it away, so my dad turned it into kindling. My grand mother was pissed. I keep threatening to do that to my wife's piano if she doesn't play it in return she asks me how well gun stocks burn. I think we came to an agreement. Sorry for thread crapping.

One of the parks around here, that has covered shelter, had someone drop off a piano (of similar style but in already rough shape) with the words "free to play" written on it. I can't imagine how many kids have had fun with it, including my own. The park is rural enough that it's survived the last couple of years without teenagers or jerks ruining it. Last time we were there was August and it was still there. All that to say, if you can't find someone to take it off your hands, a church, youth program, or perhaps even a homeless shelter might appreciate the donation.

And good on you for passing on the gift of music to someone else!

Haha, never have but have always heard the same thing. I'm local to the location so considering it but not sure what kind of manpower I would need to bring with me to make it happen.
