Pianos for Sale

Cincinnati area pianos for sale

I do have some good used pianos for sale from time to time. The top picks are selected from better makes and models available in the Cincinnati area. The others listed comprise an interesting assortment of antique pianos that I have come across while adding to my early pianoforte collection.  The prices on this page are subject to frequent change, so keep checking and you might be able to lock in a low price.

"Piano Cincinnati" Pianos For Sale:

 



1923 Baldwin Hamilton 5'3" grand piano. Nice touch and tone, in good condition for the age of the instrument.  Art-deco styling, mahogany, ivory keys, tuned at A440 (concert pitch) - $2800.

Now available for $1400, an exceptional opportunity to own a Baldwin Grand!


1904 Steinway & Sons cabinet grand upright in highly figured mahogany with Victorian-style cabriole scroll legs and flourishes - I just got this one in and it is quite a piano. The grain of the wood is incredibly vivid, similar in aspect to flame mahogany. The soundboard and bridges are in excellent condtion. It needs some work on the action and some finish touch-up, but of course it is a Steinway so it would be well worth the effort.  The more I have searched the internet the more I am tempted to raise the price. I haven't been able to find another Steinway upright out there short of an art case with such impressive visual features. $1500 as is.


                  

                          


1968 Story and Clark chapel-style studio upright piano, in excellent playing condition, very nice touch and tone. You may notice similar vertical pianos for sale for much less, but this piano has been tuned and maintained regularly since it was new, which makes a tremendous difference in the condition. Other pianos of this age have often been neglected for decades, and as such it may never be possible to bring them up either to standard pitch or to adequate playing condition.  

This is the perfect piano for a church sanctuary but also works well in the home - $1600.  

Now on sale for $1100.

    

D'Almaine and Co. English Cottage upright piano with birdcage style action, a mid-nineteenth century Victorian Era gem (1870 or older). Beautiful rosewood case and exquisite ivory and ebony keys with unusual circular insets. Not fully functioning, $750 as is. Now on sale for $350 limited time only.

 1840 E. N. Scherr square grand piano (Case only)

The rosewood and mahogany case on this very rare late classical period piano would be quite striking with restoration of the existing finish or refinished. Missing parts would make it difficult to restore to playing condition but could work well in a historic house or museum. $400 as is.

 Now on sale for $200 limited time only (as is, lacking original keyboard and action).

Here are two new additions in process of restoration :

1850 G&H Barmore square grand piano

A beautiful historic pianoforte from the Antebellum period with a very fine rosewood finish and exquisite border detailing. I have not yet had time to get this piano in full working order but it could be an excellent choice as a showpiece for a historic home or museum as is - $1500.

 Now on sale as is for $600 limited time only.

Cabinet detail from front of Barmore Square Grand:

1910 Chickering Quarter Grand

This is a very interesting baby grand with a full 88 notes but proportioned to fit well in a small or medium-sized room. It is just over five foot in length but about six inches narrower in width than other grand pianos. The aged mahogany finish is just right for the period. This piano is in the process of being reconditioned and will become available in the $2000 price range sometime in the near future. Queries welcomed.
