Steinway & Sons, also known as Steinway, is a German-American piano company, founded in 1853 in Manhattan by German piano builder Heinrich Engelhard Steinweg. The company’s growth led to the opening of a factory in New York City, United States, and later in Hamburg, Germany. The factory in the Queens borough of New York City supplies the Americas, and the factory in Hamburg supplies the rest of the world. Steinway is a prominent piano company, known for making pianos of high quality and for inventions within the area of piano development. Steinway has been granted 139 patents in piano making, with the first in 1857. The company’s share of the high-end grand piano market consistently exceeds 80 percent. Steinway pianos have received numerous awards. One of the first is a gold medal in 1855 at the American Institute Fair at the New York Crystal Palace. From 1855 to 1862, Steinway pianos received 35 gold medals. More awards and recognitions followed, including three medals at the International Exposition of 1867 in Paris. The European part of the company holds a royal warrant of appointment to Queen Elizabeth II. Steinway & Sons was named Company of the Year in 1996 by The Music Trades magazine. Steinway pianos are also a fixture in the secondary market. The price of a well-maintained Steinway might be about 50 percent the price of a new one; a piano in average used condition (or worse) might go for 25 percent or less. Both new Steinways and used Steinways retain their value. Additionally, Steinway offers certified pre-owned pianos, which ensures that any restoration work done on the piano has used Steinway parts.

Mason & Hamlin Model B
Here we have a reconditioned Mason & Hamlin Model B Grand Piano. Make: Mason & Hamlin Model: Model B Finish: (SE) Satin Ebony Statues: Used/Reconditioned. MASON & HAMLIN PIANOS. Mason & Hamlin was founded in Boston, Massachusetts in 1854 by Henry Mason, son of Lowell Mason, the American hymn composer and musical educator, and Emmons Hamlin, a mechanic and inventor who had worked for melodeon makers Prince & Co. In Buffalo, New York. They originally manufactured only melodeons, but in 1855 introduced the organ-harmonium or flat-topped cabinet organ. This design placed the bellows vertically and underneath the reeds and served as the model for the suction operated American-style reed organ. Mason & Hamlin supplied organs to several prominent composers, notably Franz Liszt, whose name the company applied to their patented selective sustain mechanism for organs comparable to the sostenuto in pianos. Mason & Hamlin began manufacturing pianos in 1883. Initially they built only upright pianos featuring a patented method of tuning and maintaining string tension which they marketed as the screw stringer and intended as an improvement over the traditional system with tuning pins. In 1895, the piano department was completely reorganized by Richard W. Gertz, an independent piano designer from Germany who had created new scales for them earlier that year. Gertz was elected secretary of the company in 1903, and president in 1906, and had patented the company’s Tension Resonator, a device fastened to the perimeter of the wooden structure of pianos meant to prevent their sounding boards from flattening. This was first included in their grands in 1900. The most illustrious concert artists of the day aligned themselves with piano manufacturers; Sergei Rachmaninoff used a Mason & Hamlin to make his 1924 recording of his Second Piano Concerto. Composer Maurice Ravel said of Mason & Hamlin pianos, While preserving all the qualities of the percussion instrument, the Mason & Hamlin pianoforte also serves magnificently the composer’s concept by its extensive range in dynamics, as well as quality of tone. American positioned Mason & Hamlin as the “artist’s brand” among the firm’s premier lines, which also included Chickering and Sons (“family use”) and Wm. (“Metropolitan Opera’s favorite”). American’s sales began to decline in 1928 and collapsed after the stock market crash in late 1929. In 1932, American itself merged with Aeolian, consolidating the control of more than 20 brands of pianos in the Aeolian-American Company. Mason & Hamlin, which had been at the former Hallet, Davis & Company piano factory in Neponset, Massachusetts, was moved to a separate plant at the Aeolian-American complex in East Rochester, New York. The company began sponsoring the Mason and Hamlin Prize piano competition. Piano manufacturing ceased in the United States in 1942 under authority of the War Production Board due to World War II, and Mason & Hamlin production shifted to military gliders. The company changed hands several times during the post-war era, becoming part of the Sohmer piano company in 1985. Over the decades, the designs of the pianos were altered to the extent that they had little in common with the “classic” Mason & Hamlin pianos of the pre-Depression era [citation needed]. He named the new enterprise the Mason & Hamlin Companies. Greer’s goal was to resurrect the Mason & Hamlin pianos of the pre-Depression era by returning to the original specifications-including Gertz’s scale designs-and use of materials. A few changes were made, including the use of Renner action parts and slightly longer keys. From 1990 to 1994, about 600 pianos were manufactured, mostly Model A and BB grands, along with a few Model 50 uprights. Kirk Burgett, after taking control of Mason & Hamlin, had engineers digitally reconstruct blueprints of the company’s high-quality pianos in the early 1900s, acquired decades-old, specialized tools, and trained the first employees for two years, in order to produce pianos with a high level of craftsmanship like the offerings from the late 19th century and early 20th century. Mason & Hamlin pianos are still manufactured in Haverhill and distributed throughout the U. Canada, Europe, and Asia. Mason & Hamlin is a member of NAMM, the International Music Products Association and Piano Manufacturers Association International. Each Mason & Hamlin piano includes a Tension Resonator, which is a system of steel rods under moderate tension, anchored to the wooden structure on the opposite side of the sounding board from the strings and iron frame. In grand pianos these rods fan out from one or two central hubs and are attached at intervals around the rim and to the belly rail; the model 50 upright has a rod stretched between the case sides. This adds strength and rigidity to the rim by locking the rim into its permanent shape and which in turn preserves the “crown” of the soundboard. (Mason & Hamlin Model B) as advertised.

1939 Original Story & Clark Storytone Electric Piano and Bench
A rare and historically important instrument, the RCA Storytone piano was built in 1939 in a joint venture between Story & Clark and RCA. The first American electric piano, it debuted at the 1939 World’s Fair. It has an art deco/streamline design that rivals that of the finest furniture of the era. The piano has normal strings and action but no soundboard — this Storytone has electromagnetic pickups and a speaker system. When amplified, it works especially well for sustained styles of playing, and sounds much more like a real piano than a Rhodes, Wurlitzer or Helpinstill, and fuller and thicker than a Yamaha CP-70 or Kawai EP-308. However, this particular Storytone is missing its amp/PSU. This Storytone piano comes with an original “standard” Storytone bench (NOT the one shown in the pictures with the piano; it’s the one in the other five pictures). We have another Storytone piano available for a few hundred dollars more, and it has its original tube amp and power supply, and the electronics on that one are restored and fully functional. However, the back board cover on that other Storytone is ripped off (cosmetic damage only, no functional effect on the instrument, most people place the back of the piano against the wall anyway). We have it in a separate Reverb listing. We are open to “mixing and matching” certain parts between the two pianos.
