Specifications

C. Bechstein Concert grand piano

ACOUSTIC ASSEMBLY

SOUNDBOARD

The soundboard and ribs are made from specially selected, fine-grained, Concert-standard European mountain spruce, which is stored for years and dried carefully. The ribs are not tapered towards their end until they have been glued onto the soundboard. The back frame and outer rim are fully glued and stored for months before the soundboard is glued on. 

BACK FRAME

Made from three continuous layers of pine and tapered towards their end, the braces are glued to the inner rim using intricate yet durable dovetail joints. Three eccentric European beech support blocks connect the cast-iron frame to the back frame. The belly rail is made of solid beech and pine. The soundboard support rail on the belly rail, made from vertically laminated layers of beech and mahogany, is also glued to the inner rim by means of dovetail joint. 

PIN BLOCK 

Block with three solid layers of American hard maple, outer layers made from cross-laminated sheets of beech veneer. High proportion of solid wood for excellent and even tunability and tuning stability.

TUNING PINS

Quality tuning pins made from nickle-plated steel. Balanced torque, low torsion, excellent tunability and tuning stability with no tuning pin bushings.

CAST-IRON FRAME

The cast-iron frame has the stability needed to withstand the enormous string-tensions. Thanks to the careful sizing and traditional method of sand casting by hand, the cast-iron frame also enhances the sound. The special method of sand casting with furan resin produces a sound propagation speed of 4,000 metres per second. 

STRINGS

Made from quality piano wire with high tensile strength and valuable copper wire from Germany, the strings have been calculated to maximize string length with a balanced register, harmonious partials and excellent tuning stability. C. Bechstein agraffes in bass and the middle range, with steel cores in the middle range. Capo d’astro with duplex strings in the treble section, duplex scaling in the rear middle and treble section. Resonating duplex strings enrich the color and vibrancy of the tone.
