1970 Hamburg Steinway & Sons Model D Concert Grand Piano | Polished Ebony – #421090
First introduced in 1884 and still in regular production at both the New York and Hamburg Factories, the Steinway & Sons Model D Concert Grand Piano is the instrument by which all other concert pianos are judged. The pinnacle of Steinway piano design, these instruments measure just under nine feet in length. Often featured on the stages of the leading premier concert venues in the world – they are just at home in the residences of many Steinway aficionados and advanced pianists.. Steinway & Sons Model D #421090 was built in 1970 at the Hamburg, Germany Steinway & Sons Factory and has been expertly restored by Chupp’s Piano Service, Inc. This golden-era instrument has undergone a painstaking and careful rebuilding process to return it to its deserved place as a concert-level, concert-ready Steinway grand!The piano’s cabinet boasts subtle reminders of its European heritage including round cabinet arms and a uniquely pointed music rack. The cabinet has been expertly refinished in an ebony high-gloss polyurethane finish, polished to a glass-like sheen. Solid brass hardware and a Hamburg-specific fallboard decal complete the exterior appearance. The backbone of the piano, the cast iron plate, has been expertly restored and re-bronzed. The new premium music wire and custom copper wound bass strings are coiled around blued Klinke tuning pins. The piano retains its original Hamburg Steinway Factory soundboard which our team has expertly refinished and restored. This is combined with a new rock maple pinblock to ensure full tone and lasting stability.
The piano’s action has been rebuilt with the finest quality parts. This includes new Renner wippens and Hamburg Steinway Factory hammers mounted on new Renner shanks and flanges. This action build is exactly as one is now delivered new out of the Hamburg Factory. (Steinway purchased the historic Renner company and utilizes their industry-leading parts.) New German Kluge keytops have been installed on the original keysticks. The original ebony sharps have been carefully sanded and polished for a consistent feel across the keyboard.
Expertly regulated by our piano technicians, this concert instrument responds effortlessly and confidently. Extensive tone regulation has been performed to ensure that the very best is brought out of this instrument. The piano projects a clear, powerful tone, with a crispness distinctive of a Hamburg Steinway. The action has been carefully weighed off. This produces a touch that is quick and sure. The responsiveness is capable of supporting top artist-level repertoires with a superior level of expression. The powerful scale design of the Model D is on full display and it is sure to fill the far corners of any concert hall!
Considered to be the standard by which all other concert pianos are judged, the Steinway & Sons Model D epitomizes historic craftsmanship and pure musicality like no other instrument!
