PRESTO
Tone Is the Soul of Any
Musical Instrument
The Weaver Piano has a perfection of tone
which has won the respect and admiration of
piano lovers everywhere. This rich full tone has
remarkable depth and power, and also extreme
delicacy. Its limped purity is achieved first, by
the scientifically "even" scale—second, by the
acoustically correct sounding" board—third, by
hammers of proper percussive quality.
Tuners and technical men who know the
Weaver Piano, also appreciate the value of its
many distinctive features.
The continuous
bridge, which insures a perfect blending- of ex-
tremes of bass and treble. The unshrinkable
dowels through ribs, sounding board, and bridge,
that prevent any possibility of rattling or loos-
ening. The patented lost motion attachment
which equalizes the touch when the soft pedal is
used. The firm and substantial construction
which insures durability to the tone, as well as
to that pleasing responsiveness in the action pe-
culiar to the Weaver Piano.
Many Dealers Are Selling Weaver Pianos
They have succeeded because they recognized
the truly remarkable quality of the Weaver Piano
—and believing in it themselves, could conscien-
tiously recommend it to their prospects. They
have used our Trade Promotion Department for
ideas in finding new prospects and cooperation in
closing sales to those new prospects. This co-
operation at the vital point in sales work and the
character of the Piano has enabled the Weaver
dealer to reach the best homes in his territory.
Coupled with the advantage of Quality, Price
and Sales Cooperation, are financing- plans for
those who can do a larger volume than they can
comfortably finance with their own capital. Be-
cause these financing plans are handled entirely
by the Weaver organization with Weaver capital
there are economies and safeguards for the dealer
not possible under some of the other plans of
financing.
The opportunity to build sales and profits with
the Weaver Line is open to you if we are not now
represented in your territory. Write us today for
our catalogs and full details of the Weaver plan.
