Viennbach
on: May 05, 2005, 03:47:51 AM
hi i have been renting a Russian made upright for almost a year, and now I am thinking of owning it. It is $3500 canadian, 2 yrs-old, in good condition.

Have anyone heard of the maker Viennbach?? personally i like it very much, for 3500 it is  a price for beginner/intermediate uprights. However i found it more 'charming' than most Yamaha or Kawai, for it has a better touch ---- heavier/weighted keys(which i perfer over light keys), and a more solid tone, unlike some yamaha i tried on(which in my opinion has a typical asian tone----thin? high-pithc, soft, soothing??)






what do u think about it? should i buy or not? what is the re-sell value?
thanks
