When you buy a Come-Packt piano, you pay for no commissions, allowances or oilier extras, that add to the priee and nol to the value of the piano. You pay for the actual cost of production plus one small profit and you receive in return an absolutely high grade piano that is without a rival in the class below $7.50.00 in priee. It is beautifully finished, and mechanically perfect. The scale is flawless and both bass and treble have the full rich tone and responsive quality that shows the class of the piano and distinguishes it from a mere collection of wood and metal. The scale is perfect and both bass and treble have a remarkably rich, harmonious, liquid tone that is a perpetual delight. It possesses that sympathetic quality and sonority as well as the clearness demanded by the exacting pianist -no other piano or piano-player surpasses our instruments in musical quality or structural soundness. It is preeminently a high class musical instrument that with the care and attention which should be given any piano, whether purchased from us or elsewhere, will give the service and satisfaction thai yon ought to expect from an instrument of the highest quality. We could write pages of description about the perfect action— the scientific accuracy with which the whole instrument has been designed—and tell you the kinds of materials used and where and how procured, bill this would probably all be meaningless. You want to know that the tone is perfect, that the action is flexible, that the piano is as represented and that it will give enduring satisfaction as a musical instrument. These points are all guaranteed by us, and any instrument may be returned if it is not as represented and the best value obtainable for the money.
