The Incredible Value of Hardman Peck Pianos
• Hardman Peck was the official piano of the Franklin
Delano Roosevelt White House
• Hardman Peck was also the official piano of the
Metropolitan Opera in New York City in the early part of the 20th century
• Top-of-the-line features - almost the same feature
set as on grand pianos selling for 200% to 300% more
• The Hardman Peck Petite Grand gives the visual impression of a full size piano
- not a "toy look" of the "Asian name-brand" grands
• The width of outer rim of the Concerto Grand is a full ½" thicker than a
top-selling Japanese brand piano
• The Hardman Peck grand has a European look with Steinway-style spade legs but
with large 2 ¼" wide casters
• The Hardman Peck grand has a wonderfully light, fast action
• Hardman Peck uses German felts for the hammers - for a rich, mellow European
tone - not a bright tone like Yamaha and other Asian pianos
• Hardman Peck grands feature two lid props - other entry level grands have only
1 lid prop (for example - Samick)
• Hardman Peck grand pianos looks rich with a nice beveled edge on the lid - all
other entry priced brands have no bevel on the lid
• Distinguished use of black felt on top of keys and iron plate, not "Christmas
looking" colors like the blue, red, and green found on most other brands
• Hardman Peck tuning pins aren't overly tight - easy for technician to tune yet
provide very stable tunings
• The rim frame even on the Petite model has 3 good size posts - a design
feature not found on entry level grand pianos
• All Hardman Peck grands feature a sostenuto pedal - a design feature not found
on entry level grand pianos
• Hardman Peck pianos are priced to provide customers with the most piano value
for the money
