BTW, that's alligator skin it's covered with.

 That art case model came out last year. Old news.

any piano with keys is beautiful to me.  it's just that bosendorfer cannot really make a truly UGLY piano.  the green steinway is uglier to me - but if someone gave it to me *(or this one) - i would take it.  it has a rustic look.  maybe it would be my casual piano (in the basement).  ideally, i would like one everywhere in the house.  at least one on each floor.

Doesn't matter what color a piano comes in...







you can always paint it black latter.

If it's too ugly to sell, I'll take it off your hands.

I'm sure the alligators won't care.

Fortunately, it's not mine. (I still think it's ugly )

Gack!

Wouldn't the alligator skin dull the sound?  I seem to remember Bosendorfer claiming that they are designed so that the sound resonates from the soundboard to the case to a greater extent than their competitors, yada yada yada.

Did Liberace have one of these?

No, Liberace's was probably encrusted with diamonds.

No. His Baldwin SD-10 was finished thousands of hand-cut little Rhinstones.

Ouff, must be made for America.
