A vertical
piano is a piano whose strings are stretched vertically,
perpendicular to the floor.
Most Vertical pianos come in three basic sizes, Professional
Studio, Studio and Console. |

Professional Studio (or Concert Vertical) (49"
to 52" in height) |
|
 |
The Professional
Studio is the tallest vertical piano, with a soundboard and
string length comparable to that of a medium grand. It is
second only to the grand pianos in tone quality. The classic
elegance of the traditional cabinetry found in ebony or the
natural wood finishes makes this the finest choice available in
a vertical piano today. |

*
Studio (44" to 48" in height) |
|
 |
The soundboard
and string lengths of the Studio piano produce a resonant tone
and volume comparable to a small grand. A very durable
instrument, this model is popular with many piano teachers, and
found in numerous academic and religious institutions. The
timeless cabinetry makes this instrument the best investment of
the vertical pianos. |

*
Console ( 40" to 43" in height) |
|
 |
Console
pianos are slightly shorter than the Studio piano. They typically
offer a larger selection of art cases and wood finishes than Studio
pianos.
Spinet
pianos are 36" - 39" in height. Originally designed
to fit under a window sill, it adds charm to any room. |

Furniture
Styles |
|
Decorator styling or period furniture is very
popular on the vertical models. There is a variety of cabinetry
fashions from which to choose, ranging from the simple design and
finish of the "professional" or "institutional" style to the fancy,
curved legs and carved music desks that offer a European look. A
diverse selection of wood finishes includes polished ebony, satin
ebony, cherry, mahogany and walnut.
We offer all
these types of vertical pianos among our various product lines.
