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!
