Perfect for your new student, spinets made their first appearance in the early 1930s. These small, affordable pianos made it possible for people with little space or money to own pianos and kept many piano companies afloat during the darkest days of the Great Depression. Within a decade, spinets became the best-selling piano design in history. The sun gradually set on the spinet as prosperity returned until the form became extinct. Baldwin was one of the last makers to make spinets, finally phasing out the model in the 1990s. Here at Rick Jones Pianos, excellent condition used spinets like this are an ideal way to get lessons underway without breaking the bank.
