I enjoyed it even though the piano is out of tune. (I realize that you can't tune it until it is acclimated to its new home.) I'm envious of anyone who acquires a Bechstein. A good pianist like you deserves a good piano.

The way my tech has worked the Renner action has all but ruined other pianos for me (well, not completely - a Fazioli 228 I played recently had an amazing feel). Congrats on your piano - it sounds like a real gem. Thank you very much!! :)) Originally Posted by Almaviva Originally Posted by Lafi Chopin Etude Op. 10 No. 1 I can`t get enough of the Bechstein :)) The feel of the keyboard is one of my favorite things ever :)) https://youtu.be/NqRsMq7unS8 Lovely playing.

A good pianist like you deserves a good piano. Thank you! :)) Yes i am waiting a bit before tuning for the piano to settle in the home i am also replacing some base strings (they had some additional noise and my tuner couldn`t fix them) And after all that it will get proper tuning and everything else it deserves :))

It's even an upright and grand combination, just like Lafi! Is the Challen logo big enough? Thanks for sharing. Search US techs by Zip Code “If it sounds good, it IS good.” ― Duke Ellington!

They certainly are bold. Currently working towards "Twinkle twinkle little star"
