Best Grand PIano under 5.5ft
on: June 20, 2021, 11:52:26 AM
If money was no object, what grand piano 170cm or less would you choose? I know there is no 'right' answer here, but interested in what people think of the smaller grands made by the leading manufacturers.

I'd message these guys and pay them to make me a custom baby grand. Should set you back around $200,000

Don’t know where you live, but I would look at this small Philadelphia based piano builder
There are several members on another forum that have purchased them and who are very pleased

Just read one of your earlier posts that you had been looking at Tier 1 uprights.  I would encourage you to continue shopping for them at the same time you explore small grands. You may find the upright much more satisfying
