| | Comments on this make | | Alison are most appreciated for their attractive baby grand pianos, in mahogany, bird's eye maple or walnut. These are of reasonable quality; those we've tuned often have loose tuning pins and need repinning and well as general adjustments. Allison are also well known for their small uprights, many of which are still in use. If you are looking for a small piano, however, Allison's can be be varied, so we strongly recommend getting a tuner to look at the piano before buying. |
