This exceptional piano underwent a complete restoration by Cantabile Piano Restoration of New York, one of the region’s respected piano restoration specialists. The restoration was performed with meticulous attention to preserving the character and musical soul of this vintage Steinway while renewing its performance and structural integrity for generations to come.

Comprehensive Restoration Included:

* New soundboard
* New pinblock
* New strings
* New tuning pins
* Bridge restoration and rebuilding
* Complete action rebuilding and regulation
* New Steinway-style hammers
* Replacement of worn action components
* Precision voicing and regulation
* Cabinet refinishing in elegant high-gloss ebony

The result is an instrument that offers the responsiveness, tonal richness, and reliability expected of a premier concert-quality Steinway. The touch is refined and expressive, allowing for exceptional control from the most delicate pianissimo passages to powerful fortissimo performance.

Tonally, the piano possesses the qualities for which the vintage Model A-III is especially admired: singing treble registers, a warm and resonant tenor, and a rich, supportive bass that belies its compact size.

Piano Life Saver System Installed

To further protect this investment, the piano is equipped with a Piano Life Saver humidity control system (formerly Dampp-Chaser). This professionally installed system continuously regulates humidity levels within the piano, helping to preserve tuning stability, soundboard integrity, and overall structural health throughout seasonal climate changes.

A Timeless Steinway

The Steinway Model A-III is widely regarded as one of the company’s most successful vintage designs, prized by pianists for its remarkable balance of power, warmth, and musical nuance. At 6’4”, it offers much of the tonal depth of larger grand pianos while fitting comfortably into sophisticated residential settings.

Finished in a striking polished ebony cabinet and accompanied by a matching artist bench, this instrument presents beautifully in both contemporary and traditional interiors.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully restored vintage Steinway that combines historic pedigree, superb craftsmanship, and exceptional musical performance—a piano equally suited for the serious pianist, teacher, collector, or discerning music lover.

A true heirloom instrument, ready to inspire for decades to come.
