The Sohmer 77E model is a 5’10” medium grand piano that packs a punch capable of rivaling larger 6’+ instruments. High-quality componentry and a wonderful scale design grant the 77E with an impressive musical output. A surprisingly clear and powerful bass section is contrasted by a beautifully colourful upper register. The touch is also impressively-responsive even when playing the most delicate dynamics. Overall, it is an exceptional grand piano, which I suppose should be expected from any piano donning the Sohmer name.

This Sohmer 77E is finished in an elegant mahogany satin and was manufactured by the South Korean piano manufacturer Samick. It is in excellent condition and boasts the same high-quality musical performance that one expects from this well-regarded model. It would be the ideal first grand piano for a customer seeking top performance at a great price.

Sohmer & Co. was established in 1872 in New York. In addition to being regarded as one of the greatest American piano builders of all-time, Sohmer is attributed with being the first company to sell modern baby grand pianos. Sohmer pianos were played by a wide variety of famous personalities, including U.S. President Calvin Coolidge and composer Irving Berlin. Today, the Samick Music Corporation owns the Sohmer name and manufactures the associated piano lines.
