Blüthner pianos are famous the world over for their beautiful, singing 'Golden Tone' and are the instrument of choice for many of the worlds finest musicians and composers. Since the company was founded in 1853, the company's ethos has been to produce the finest quality pianos in the world, and to this day Blüthner upright pianos are beautifully handcrafted in Leipzig Germany from only the finest materials.
The Model A is beautifully proportioned and elegantly styled, while fitted with Abel hammers and a responsive Renner action you can be assured of one of the finest playing experiences an upright piano can offer.
Measuring 124cm tall, slotting neatly between the Yamaha SE122 and SE132, the Model A is a wonderful premium quality, handmade German upright piano.
A great choice for the more discerning pianist, compact enough to suit a domestic home yet with sufficiently sized to produce a refined and resonant tonal quality.
Since 1853, Blüthner pianos have been exclusively manufactured in Leipzig, Germany. To this day, the Blüthner family of craftsman and entrepreneurs continues to head the Blüthner firm and personally oversees the production of each piano bearing their name. They carry on the legacy of the founder, Julius Blüthner, to build the best pianos in the world, achieving the highest standards of precision and craftsmanship.
Only the finest white high mountain spruce from selected alpine stock is used for the production of Blüthner soundboards, which are seasoned for many years to ensure maximum resonance. The key bed is constructed of alternate layers of red beech and German pine resulting in a high degree of stability, while the iron frame is cast in a quartz sand mould and seasoned outside for two years.
The hammerheads consist of a core made of white beech, covered with a dense, hard-woven felt. Blüthner felts are processed in a complex cold-pressing process that optimally protects and preserves their valuable properties, while the bright blue underfelt is recognisable in all Blüthner instruments.
Designed around Julius Blüthner's desire to produce the finest pianos in the world, each piano that bears his name is beautifully built and intended to be passed down through the generations. Each piano is prepared by our house technicians prior to sale and ready for a lifetime of service.
