No, very different beasts. It kinda looks like a smallish square grand. The treble and tenor tuning pins are along the front edge of the plate, much like a modern grand and the bass tuning pins are angled from the front of the piano to the left rear corner of the piano. It has a modern grand action - again, the treble and tenor are in the normal configuration, and the bass part of the action is angled to the back of the piano - the bass keys get longer as you go down to A0 to reach the action.
