It is the same here and i am sure the same there. also remember: if i know what piano guys are like, you will not find a hidden treasure in the groups of pianos they bring it.you can be assured that the piano guys ALWAYS know the top models and will charge more or the really good ones will be sold to customers that have paid in advance for certain models which will never get to the shop where you are looking. What do you say? Which one should I choose? Do I take unnecessary risk if I go for Weinbach?

I think there is not much difference between the two pianos and I tend to like the Weinbach more. The guy who is selling them is a professional piano player and he recommended that I buy the Yamaha because it has better hammers, better action and better parts. The Weinbach looks like new.īoth instruments play fine but the Weinbach sound is warmer to my inexperienced ear. On the whole it looks unattractive and uninspiring. There are also some ballpen markings on the side. It looks as if a 4 yo kid jumped around the piano doing his thing. However on the outside some of the Yamaha's keys are chipped and its cabinet looks worse than Weinbach's. I was surprised to see that both instruments look very good inside despite their age. I have to choose between a Yamaha - 2000 euros, from 1978 according to serial number and a Weinbach - 1500 euros, from 1970.

Hi! I need a decent upright for my 6 year old.
