Description:
Hardman, Peck & Co. is a well known New York manufacturer who
specialized in fine quality grand pianos and high styled vertical pianos for
the finest homes in the East. Known for their cabinet designs, art
cases and special edition pianos, Hardman became part of the Aeolian Group
before World War II and ceased all operations in 1982. After years of
being fallow, the name was purchased by North American Music of Nanuet, NY
and they started producing a range of pianos made by the Dongbei Piano
Company of Northern China, These pianos are being marketed as 'value
pianos' to compete with all the other Chinese and Indonesian made products.
This piano has been untouched and unplayed since purchase in 2007 from
Performance Pianos. Due to a divorce, the piano was sold and we have
completely refurbished the piano, resolved some technical issues from the
factory and now can offer this fine value in a studio upright piano.
Significant German voicing and specific readjustment of both the stringing
and action relationships have yielded a much higher level of quality and
performance than is available from any new Hardman from any dealer in the
country! |
