“America’s Favourite Piano” is quite the title to be granted and continues to live up to for numerous decades, but Baldwin’s ability to do so is a testament to the impressive quality and craftsmanship they have consistently been able to maintain.
Despite growing to become the largest American piano manufacturer at one point, the company’s quality standards never declined.
Introduced in 1939, Baldwin’s 243 model is the company’s highest-selling piano of all time.
Its efficient action, well-balanced tone, and robust design allow it to offer perfect performance after perfect performance. There is a very good reason why Baldwin sold over 500,000 units of this model worldwide.
The Used Baldwin Upright Piano and its premium hard rock maple construction give it a ruggedness and durability that makes it an ideal choice for institutional settings. From schools and studios to churches and retirement homes, the 243 is built to endure any setting.
This particular Baldwin 243 features a beautiful satin ebony finish. It has quite long strings for its 47” frame and 100% virgin wool hammers, which, in tandem, lead to a pure and balanced tone that rivals even the tallest upright piano models on the market.
These features are rounded out by a solid spruce soundboard, ribs, and back frame as well as a solid two-ply hard rock maple and beech bridge. Baldwin’s Full Blow Direct Action leads to an exceptional touch and responsiveness that allows players to have access to unlimited expressivity.
Given its $4195 price tag, this Used Baldwin Upright Piano 243 presents incredible value for schools, churches, and individuals alike that are looking for a reliable piano that can offer a fantastic musical experience for decades to come.
