Mason & Hamlin & Other Pianos

[piannaman at aol.com]

I don't have much time, as I'm heading out of town in a couple of minutes.  I can just offer that I'd stack a WELL-PREPPED Mason against any other piano of its size.  Many hours of work are required to get them to their potential, kind of like a NY Steinway.  The European and Japanese brands don't require as much work out of the box, but IMHO there are few other pianos in the world that have the visceral tone quality of a Mason and Hamlin.  They are unique and wonderful instruments.

Hello All.



 



Living out here on the prairies of Canada, it’s been
difficult to compare pianos when Yamaha has dominated the field for three
decades. I have a client who recently bought a Model A Mason & Hamlin
grand. It’s a very nice piano. I have another client who is looking for a
grand and I’m looking for feedback on how the NEW Mason & Hamlins
stack up against the following NEW pianos:



 



New York Steinway



Hamburg Steinway



Fazioli



Eastonia



Bosendorfer



Petrof



Kawai



Yamaha



 



Look forward to hearing from someone.



 



Thanks,
