Is your piano a grand or an upright? Is there a model number listed anywhere inside?

Although there are many pianos on eBay, Craigslist might be a better place to list your piano for sale (plus it's free). Just go to http://www.craigslist.org, click on your city or metro area along the righthand side, and make a posting to your local musical instruments section. This is basically an online version of placing a classified ad. Be sure to include a photo or two of the piano.

Regarding the WINAMP control upgrade- this basically permits replacing the old 1970s cassette deck with a modern wireless link to a Windows computer, where a modified version of the WINAMP media player software can be used to control the piano. Since the cassette player was always the most failure-prone component in the Pianocorder, upgrading to computer-based control is an ideal way to modernize the Pianocorder system. But if the piano is playing OK from cassettes, I wouldn't bother upgrading before trying to sell it; just mention that the upgrade is available in case the buyer is interested.
