Didn't Yamaha do something similar? I seem to recall an unconvential back on "The Silent Piano" sold in the U.S. I think it was designated MX-something-or-other.

Hmmm, don't recall seeing a Yamaha back like that Grotrian - but it's not something I'd pull a piano from a wall to check!

Need a new phone?

Steinway's first art case piano, built in 1857, currently on display in Steinway Hall:



Doesn't the first photo look like the piano has only two legs?

Then you're in luck. There's one of exactly that model at Maximilliaan's in NYC. To my eye, it was a bit better for color than the one shown above from Steinway Hall. (I really liked that case myself.)

Oooh. I really like that one. (But I also liked the Sauter Maly in corrugated aluminum, too.)

I wonder if it sounds "tinny".
