DESCRIPTION

This piano was built by The Charles M. Stieff Piano Company of Baltimore during the “Golden Age” of piano building in America. This piano is a large, full size upright with the string length and soundboard area of a full grand piano! This piano is made of imported Honduran Mahogany wood and is of the Colonial style. It can be finished in either a red mahogany color or brown mahogany color per the buyer’s request.

Instruments by Charles M. Stieff were known to be exceptionally well-made pianos, often referred to as “The Poor Man’s Steinway”. While Stieff pianos were not inexpensive, the firm’s success resulted from their ability to provide a top-quality musical instrument at a lower price than most other major brand names.

This piano will be restored to like-new condition, inside and out. The tone and touch of the instrument will be suitable for the discriminating pianist. If desired, this piano can be equipped with the Pianomation player system, and can play by itself by streaming music live on through any smart device. More than 10,000 song titles are available!

A matching piano bench is included.
