Alexander Piano Pics

http://alexanderpiano.yolasite.com/

There must be very few pianos actually designed to have NO keyboard lid.


That is not a pinblock you're looking at, but Plate Steel about as thick as your wrist...! So how are the pins secured?



Here is the 18feet 9inches business end of the Alexander - a challenge to anyone in the world to post a photo of a piano with NOT ONE wound string to it's name, indeed does such a piano even exist...?



New Zealand Rimu makes a lovely wood to finish the piano, however all this silly gadget does is block the view of the considerable Real Estate otherwise on view:-)



If a large shed is your bedroom then this is a suitably large bedside mirror! But a musical one of course...

Although it is missing some black keys, the foot pedals don't move and the extreme ranges are quite out of tune, it still plays pretty well.
