Wilh. Steinmann pianos?

Post by aayjaay »

Anyone heard of them? Are they good. I saw a small upright in the shop I went to with the name on and it was one of the better ones that I tried.

Thanks

You'll need to send 3 photos of the piano here to get a rough idea - we cant determine if ANYTHING is any good (even Steinway) if a piano is not played, seen touched or heard. There is a "Steinman" (with one 'n') - but I believe its from USA. Many pianos have German sounding names. It could be from China - not sure.... we also need to know its age?? some pianos are "stencil pianos" .... look that term up on google. So we need.... (for ANY piano you see)

1. Photo of the whole piano with nothing on it.
2. Close up and clear photo of the name (letters) of the piano
3. Remove front panel, and take a photo of the whole mechanism inside.

Send them using JPG, about 10 X 15cm (180 - 300 resolution) - clear, focussed and if needed with a flash.... preferrably a proper digital camera, not a phone camera...
or get someone to check it over. If this your first post, you can only send one image for now. Once it's content has been checked by a Moderator, you'll be able to send more than one image in the same topic/page. Send No 1 photo first if thats the case.
