The Player The Piano by Smith Barnes in India America

About the Player The Piano is made by Smith Barnes, one of the oldest, richest and most reliable manufacturers in America. It is fully guaranteed with the makers' guarantee, and with our own. We have sold it for many years, know well-recommend it and have yet to know of its disappointing anybody. It has a beautiful tone, a light, easy action, and will last longer than the average lifetime. The Player part of the Piano is the Perfected Player. It enables one to reproduce hand playing, really human playing, so fine, so beautiful, that like Oliver Twist you will simply say, "Please, I want some more!" The Smith & Barnes Player has a Solo Device so that you can play the melody naturally with subdued accompaniment, or you can bring out the accompaniment and lower the melody to a mere whisper. It is so simple that it cannot get out of order-anybody can "catch on" in a minute, and everybody can play anything, the way they like to play it, at any time without practicing.
