Q: I mean besides the style. Do they sound any different? I'm thinking of buying a baldwin piano, but I don't know if there is any more of a difference between the two pianos besides the style. I really want to learn how to play piano though, so I am. I'd

The serial number is 53640 on my Chappell baby grand piano. I estimate it is about 90 years old (just a guess) but I am wondering if anyone knows a website that could tell me the year my piano was made? Thanks in advance.


I would look at the website: http://www.besbrodepianos.co.uk/pianoser ialnumber/chappel.htm
It states that your piano was manufactured between 1910 and 1920. Good luck.
