N the rush of player piano demand which the trade has seen the past
few years, many, many instruments have been put out with one purpose
in mind only—to give the dealer an instrument which could be sold
quickly for a very low price. Do we need to query—has this been a
good thing for the player business?
Ever since the player piano was first put on the market, it has in-
variably been easy to sell, but difficult to deliver satisfaction. And
the recent great influx of popular priced players has further increased this difficulty.
Bearing all this in mind, the makers of the Conway Player Piano have worked
conscientiously and steadily to produce a player which would meet the popular price
demand, yet should have inherent high quality.
We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this new model Conway Player Piano as a player
you can put into any home and guarantee it to give absolute satisfaction.
This satisfaction will cover not only the piano—its tone, easy action and durability; but the player
mechanism as well. For this action is made in the most conscientious factory in America. It
embodies features that have world-wide reputation—the famous trapezoid tracker bar; the Simplex
unit pneumatic; the four-piece valve, etc. And it is proof against the thousand and one player trou-
bles which attack inferior player actions.
Furthermore, this new Conway Player Piano is vouched for by a business house over three-quarters
of a century old—the house which was among the first in America to perfect the upright piano. A
house so strong financially that it is able to give the piano merchants who represent it a plan of
financial freedom that encourages them to sell musical merchandise as they never have been able to sell
it before.
If you are in business with the conviction that a satisfied conscience plus a satisfying bank balance are
more to be desired than the bank balance alone, write today for terms, deliveries, etc., on the Conway
line of Pianos and Player Pianos.
