Wm. Knabe & Co. is one of the most celebrated piano makers of all time, and this instrument is one of the last Golden Age Knabe’s produced by the original company prior to their purchase by the Aeolian Piano Company – giving this instrument a point of historical interest.
While the company’s ownership has changed hands many times over the years, the manufacturing quality and musical satisfaction that these wonderful instruments offer has remained constant.
Wm. Knabe pianos are renowned for their fine cabinetry. They are often just as stunning visually as they are musically and this particular piano is no exception.
The ornate detailing of the music desk, legs, and lyre exemplify the company’s impressive attention to detail. This is a truly striking piano that is worthy of being the focal point of any room or space.
The satin mahogany finish and cabinet are in showroom condition.
Musically speaking, this piano offers a lush, rich tone and incredible dynamic potential.
It has a bold American voice, which shines through the most delicate pianissimos and the most emphatic fortissimos.
There is plenty of colour in the upper middle and treble registers, which perfectly compliments the powerful, clear bass section.
Simply put, this is an instrument that sounds just as good as it looks.
Given that decorative furniture-style cabinet grand pianos like this demand a lofty premium on the new piano market, this gorgeous Wm.
Knabe is the perfect opportunity to achieve an old-time furniture aesthetic on an accessible budget.
This piano has been turning heads since it arrived at the showroom, so it is a matter of time before it finds its proud new owner.
