Steinway Piano Touch

on: March 22, 2010, 01:34:20 AM

What are the weight/touch of Steinway piano keys? And how do they relate to Yahama's?

I am not familiar with Yamaha pianos, but I can tell you that my Steinway is excellent in every way. It could be that I am just used to it, but no other piano I have played can equal it in sound quality or touch.

Since piano touch can be adjusted to a players liking through regulation and pianos also go through wear and tear at a variable rate, that is an almost impossible question to answer unless both pianos are brand new and set to factory specs (which can be obtained through literature written for piano techs).
