Additional Info
The sound and rib material are made from solid Alaskan Sitka spruce, while the bridge is made from hard maple and precision notched by hand. Each key is crafted of solid Alaskan Sitka spruce with ebony wood sharp keys, and individually weighted for the most responsive action possible. Abel German hammers sound-quality Roslau strings, and a 17-ply hard maple pin blocks offers a lifetime of precision performance. The three traditinoal pedals –soft sustain and sostenuto –are constructed of solid brass, and the fallbaord utilizes a slow-close mechanism for a smooth, sure motion when in use. This makes it easier and safe for younger players. (from baldwinpiano.com)
