Steinway & Sons A Rosewood
6'2" Rosewood Satin Grand - Serial #45732 - 1881, Restored
Built in 1881, this restored 6'2" Steinway & Sons Model A grand underwent a substantial restoration in the 1980s before coming to Reeder Pianos and is now being carefully reconditioned by our expert technicians. At that time, the piano received a new soundboard, bridge caps, tuning pins and strings, pinblock, and hammers. The action was also reconditioned with new felts, and the cabinet was refinished.
The rosewood finish remains in good condition and showcases handsome original styling, including a carved music desk and distinctive flowerpot legs. The 85-note keyboard has had its original ivory keytops replaced. Rich in character and history, this instrument offers lasting musical enjoyment today while also representing a strong candidate for a future restoration. An artist bench is included.
Reconditioning will include:
- Aligning Hammers to Strings
- Leveling Keys, Adjusting Key Dip
- Adjusting Let-off and Backchecks
- Cleaning the Strings & Soundboard
- Polishing the Keytops
- Tightening All the Action Screws
- Tuning and Voicing
- Case Refreshing
- Cleaning/polishing brass hardware
New, the cost would be over $200,000 for a special order designer case with rosewood veneer, such as this one. Listed here is a great piano for less than half the price!
Steinway Piano History
Steinway & Sons was established in Manhattan in New York in 1853 by Heinrich Steinweg, a German piano maker who immigrated from Germany in 1850. The company has grown to be one of the most prominent piano manufacturing companies today, has won numerous awards, and is perhaps the most recognized name in the world of pianos today.
You will not be disappointed with a Steinway in your living room or music studio!
