STEINERT 6'3" Model D Grand Piano Serial Number 11851
Year of manufacture is approximately 1909. Between the late 1800's and 1930's, M. Steinert, America's oldest Steinway dealer produced their own pianos in Boston, MA. The pianos they produced were essentially copies of the Steinway models found in their showroom. The Steinert model D is nearly an exact copy of a Steinway Model A, with the same attention to detail evident throughout. The piano was completely rebuilt and refinished, in a dark mahogany low luster lacquer. Style is traditional. Soundboard and bridges were refinished and are in perfect condition. New hammers were fitted, voiced and shaped to Steinway standards. The piano has a very powerful sound much like a Steinway model B.
