Mason & Hamlin Model 50
Mason & Hamlin has been building finely-crafted pianos by hand since 1854. Along with Steinway & Sons, Mason & Hamlin is one of the last limited production piano manufacturers still remaining in North America. Since the turn of the 20th century, the United States has been regarded as one of the best spots in the world for piano manufacturing within the global piano industry. Mason & Hamlin and Steinway & Sons have been perpetuating that legacy, which has allowed the notion to hold true to this day.
Mason & Hamlin has long been known for building some of the very best and heaviest grand and upright pianos on the planet. In fact, the Model 50 is the heaviest 50” upright piano on the planet, weighing in at 460 lbs. Along with all of their grand pianos, the Model 50 upright piano features a full-perimeter plate and thick hard rock maple frame that makes it unparalleled in terms of its durability and longevity. This is augmented by the use of carbon-fiber componentry for their high-performing actions. Aside from Kawai, Mason & Hamlin is the only other manufacturer to utilize carbon-fiber actions, which yield greater reliability and a faster, more sensitive touch.
This Mason & Hamlin Model 50 is in the traditional ebony polish finish and features the durable design, ultra-responsive touch, and exceptional bass that this model is renowned for. Additionally, more costly and time-consuming manufacturing practices, such as tapered soundboards and sandcast plates, have been employed to ensure the utmost quality and performance. The piano is 100% handcrafted in the USA and represents the pinnacle of North American craftsmanship.
This Model 50 is one of the closest sonic experiences to a grand piano that you will ever receive from an upright piano. It is the ideal musical companion to a serious player or student that is looking for the very best tonal and dynamic potential in an upright piano. Pianos of this caliber are usually lifelong companions and, as such, seldom appear on the used market. This is an opportunity to own a once-in-a-lifetime instrument for a once-in-a-lifetime price!
