Product Description

Steinway B Grand Piano

This is a one owner Steinway that has been serviced and maintained regularly, it has been in the same home here in the Portland area since it was delivered new. This is a true representation of the popular Steinway model B (6’10 1/2″) with serial number 574011. A roaring bass and clear treble, with singing tone and action that offers easy touch and wide range of dynamics all this and more make this piano a rare find.

This magnificent grand piano is often referred to by pianists as “the perfect piano.” It is a wonderfully balanced and versatile instrument that does extremely well in refined homes, teaching studios, and mid-sized venues. The Steinway Model B grand piano, sometimes referred to as “the perfect piano” is Steinway & Son’s 7′ class grand piano that has influenced piano design for more than a century, and been a musical favorite of concert pianists for nearly as long. It is considered one of the top 10 7′ grand pianos in the world, and for most of the 20th century, was the undisputed leader of the industry. It is also a prime example of musical instruments and consumer goods taking a dramatic leap forward in design and complexity as a result of the industrial revolution, and the new economic era that it brought to most of the world. Merriam Pianos recently acquired a relatively new Steinway & Sons Model B grand piano, and Stu Harrison, Sales Director and Professional Pianist, will take you through the model’s history, its sound, and what makes it one of the Top 10 most sought-after instruments in the world.

The Model B is considered the creme de la creme of Steinway pianos for virtually any top pianist. It has the reach and bass potential almost on par with the Steinway Model D concert grand, a full lyrical ringing tone, and the size is just simply right. For chordal sections or intricate passagework, the Steinway Model B has both the breadth and clarity to deliver.
