    Hi, jason71079!

    I'm assuming that you mean Adam Schaaf. Is that correct, please?

    Thanks!

    I'll find some information about it and also correct the spelling in the title.

    If all the notes play and at least the sustaining pedal works and if it can be tuned up to the American Standard Pitch of A=440, then it's probably going to be an OK instrument.
