| Comments on this make |
Highly respected maker of top quality new pianos. Although Steingraeber have make over 10,000 pianos, few of these can be found in the UK and nearly all pianos found in the UK are modern grand pianos. Most date from about the year 2000. They have a serious rich tone and very finely adjusted touch; highly recommended. Steingraeber have also experimented with the "Phoenix" system which allows less pressure on the soundboard, therefore letting it vibrate more freely.
