Brand Names Used Since 1980
In 1980, there were about 80 brand names on the new piano market! There were also thousands of discontinued brand names on the used piano market! To add to the confusion, brand names change hands. A manufacturer may purchase the name, and then produce a piano which is of lower or higher quality than that which the brand name originally implied. You should investigate the history of the brand name to learn of such changes.
At least a dozen manufacturers make professional quality pianos, having the finest mechanism inside a limited selection of the finest furniture. Other manufacturers may stress external appearance at the expense of mechanical quality by offering a larger selection of fancy furniture styles. The public, by its purchases, decide what types are the most desirable.
To choose a brand, you must know how serious you are about studying the piano, and how much money you are willing to spend. DON’T buy a cheap piano, beat up used piano just because it will be used by a child or a beginning student. One sure way to destroy someone’s enthusiasm for piano is to give him one which would sound terrible even if Beethoven himself sat down to play it!
