Used Steingraber Opus 168 Grand Piano in Polished Ebony

The storied history of the legendary German piano manufacturer Steingraeber & Söhne began in the 1820s. However, it was after moving to Bayreuth in 1852 that Eduard Steingraeber combined “English” and “Viennese” actions to create his “Opus 1”, which was widely considered to be a revolutionary masterpiece. Since 1867, Steingraeber pianos have regularly been awarded international prizes and widely been revered as being amongst the top five piano manufacturers in the entire world.

The used Steingraeber Opus 168 is a stunning 5’6” medium grand that far exceeds any pianist’s perception of what a grand piano of this size is capable of. Widely considered to be amongst the “best in its class”, the 168 has an extra wide tail, which allows for extended bass strings and a large soundboard surface area. Its sophisticated design optimizes the transmission of vibrational energy similarly to a concert grand. Naturally, the culmination of these unique design innovations leads to a power and tonal range that is virtually unparalleled in this size category.

This particular Steingraeber Opus 168 is no exception to the lofty musical expectations one might have based on the model’s description. To that point, this piano not only delivers on that expectation but exceeds it. The clarity and depth of the bass register will make any player think they are playing a 6’+ grand, while the musicality and colour from the middle and treble registers will have even the fussiest of players totally captivated by the instrument’s immense beauty.

Pianos of this calibre are typically purchased as lifelong investments and musical companions, so this is a rare opportunity to own a very young premium handcrafted German grand at an attractive price point.
