Bechstein is known to produce some of the finest pianos in the world. And this 1952 Bechstein is no exception. At 45" tall it has a lovely and very even tone across all the octaves. With its Renner action, it has a nice touch, and the ivory keys are in pristine condition. In short, it's a solid piano with a perfect soundboard and it comes with a padded matching bench with storage.
