This head-turning piano has a cabinet of polished bubinga, one of the most beautiful and rare of exotic wood finishes. It was manufactured by Samick based on Knabe’s original Baltimore designs of the late 19th and early 20th century. It includes materials and components usually found only on expensive European and American pianos, including Renner action parts with Renner Premium Blue hammers, an Italian spruce soundboard, Roslau piano wire, maple and oak rims with spruce beams, pure iron ore sand cast plates, and 16-ply hard rock maple pinblocks. Its visual and aural beauty will compliment your home as few pianos can. This model is no longer offered today with a bubinga finish, but even the least expensive ebony finish offered with this model today sells new for $41,557, over THREE TIMES the price of this piano! If this fact alone does not send you running into the office yelling, “SOLD!” then perhaps saving tons of money isn’t your thing.
