Third version of Steinway Model A at 6’4.5” long. Known by aficionados as one of Steinway’s best scale designs. This model version was manufactured only between 1913-1945. This particular piano was rebuilt sometime within the last 30-35 years with a new soundboard, pinblock, whippens, backchecks, Steinway hammers/shanks/flanges, all keys were rebushed, both at the front & balance-rail guide pin holes, new damper felts. New Mapes bass strings and tuning pins installed in 2017. Still has original ivory keys in pretty good condition, only short hairline cracks on the edges and a couple repaired chips on a few. Strings and pins contain oxidation. Soundboard has a longitudinal crack about 1/64” wide, starting at soundboard perimeter at right tenor all the way to perimeter at bass end of the internal vertical rim. No loose ribs were found along length of crack. Piano case has fairly significant amount of wear. History unknown. Purchased on consignment at Steinway Piano Gallery Cleveland in late 2016. Has had full-system Dampp Chaser installed/maintained for as long as we have owned this piano and is included with this purchase along with all associated parts (watering tank, pads, pad solution etc.) Piano was voiced to have fairly bright and lively tone. Thunderous and deep bass! Clear and bell-like treble. Shimmering/sparkling high treble. Action was fully regulated/lubricated last in 2018 along with voicing and all associated work.
