Serial number: 127392. This Model 8 was manufactured in Germany in 1926. This is the top of the line in upright pianos, referred to by the makers as a Concert Upright. With unsurpassed quality, it is a real collector’s piece. Replacement value in new would run well into the R 300 000.00 range. We do our best to acquire such pianos, but they are scarcely seen on the market. It is a gem of a piano, possibly our best.
Eshelby Pianos spraypainted and repolished this piano to a high gloss black finish (November 2015).
Its tone is semi-bright in being lively but retaining the full-bodied richness of a German piano. The tone is fantastic! The piano has 88 keys, with a very smooth medium to lighter touch, and 2 pedals. The dimensions of this piano are a height of 128 cm, a width of 156 cm and a depth of 63 cm.
The JAE 622 C. Bechstein Upright Pianoforte and stool is currently hired out.
The photographs below show the piano before its casing was spraypainted and polished.
