essex grand

[John Ross]

My understanding is that Pearl River makes them now.
That is what I was told, in Kansas City.

  The info I have is that the Essex was made by Young Chang until SMC bought Young Chang.  At that time S&S switched to a Chineese Manufacturer.  I was told that they were switching back to YC in Korea but have not been able to confirm it.

  I thought Essex was made in Korea - now they're making them in China?

    At a local Guild meeting at the local Steinway dealer, we were presented with a new Essex, Chinese-style, for evaluation.  Very impressive, with a smooth transition scale, large beams and massive rim structure.   Quick tune, out of the box, no voicing, sounded very nice.  Nicest Chinese piano I've seen yet.  I don't know the price of the piano we saw.
