America’s Favorite Piano.

  This model is part of the Baldwin Classic Console line of quality pianos and is 41” tall. They were available in lovely traditional furniture cabinet styles. This one is in modern Mediterranean and finished with genuine American cherry cabinet veneers and lacquered with a light brown stain. There is a burl cherry design element in the music rack and the legs are nicely carved with vertical fluting. The original matching bench with storage is included and it has the very same leg design, only smaller. There are three functional pedals and they and the cabinet hardware are solid brass.

Built in the USA in 1975, this piano has been in Albuquerque all of its life so it is happily acclimated and well-adjusted to our unique climate. It was purchased at the longtime Baldwin dealer, King Music located right up the street from here. It is in excellent structural and aesthetic condition. There is minimal wear throughout the moving parts of the action and trapwork. Other than tuning, very little had to be done for this piano in our restoration shop. We will be happy to warrant it for two years. It ought to provide decades of musical enjoyment and expression. The Baldwin tone is characterized by a strong robust bass, long sustaining rich tenor and a bell-like treble. The touch is accurate and responsive. Complimentary local first-floor professional delivery is included.

The Baldwin Piano & Organ company was established in 1862 by Dwight Hamilton Baldwin, a Presbyterian minister and music teacher in Cincinnati, Ohio. They are by far the most popular and largest-selling piano in American history and their slogan was “America’s Favorite Piano”. Among the general public, Baldwin has been one of the most beloved and well-respected pianos in the industry and many are passed down through generations of families. They are frequently used by music teachers, colleges and universities, places of worship and any institutional situation in part because they are affordable and offer a great value but they are also built like Sherman tanks to last. Their Artist endorsement program boasted a large roster of musicians, conductors and composers including Liberace, John Williams (Star Wars soundtrack), Dave Brubeck, Earl Wild and dozens more. Today, Baldwin is a division of Gibson Guitars, and they are built in China.
