Complete Restoration with custom case finish.

As in all my pianos, this piano’s sound has been refined in my extensive tone regulation process.

  • Custom designed case; color stained satin finish mahogany top and legs, contrasting with hand rubbed high polish jet black trim details, and matte solid body color.
  • The color and subtle texture contrasts make this instrument an inviting instrument to enjoy visually. It will compliment a living room or chamber venue.
  • The sound sparkles, with a tone which has little noise and plenty of sustain. Nicely balanced bass, tenor and treble registers. A comfortable sized sound which will not overwhelm a living space, and will blend beautifully when played in chamber ensembles.
  • Bass and Tenor register create a fullness that one would only expect in a 6′ or larger instrument. This piano does not have the tubby tenor bass sound usually associated with small grands.
  • Fast responsive touch; optimized action geometry.
  • Strings rescaled and optimized; allows clean transparent tunings.
  • New Sitka Spruce soundboard, custom rib crowned soundboard; very responsive board designed to survive New England’s tough piano climate.
