My Favorite: Pianos from Famous Brands

Favorite pianos from my favorite piano brands. I can't imagine for the price but I keep imagining to play that piano, afford it, take it home, or play it on a concert LOL. Steinway and Sons, my first favorite piano maker brand. I've played a baby grand of Steinway and Sons once, and I really liked it! I wished I could take it home :'(

This is Steinway and Sons : Parlor Grand (Model A), with length : 188 cm (6' 22''), big enough for small space Steinway and Sons : Music Room Grand (Model B). 211 cm (6' 10 1/2''). Bigger than the parlor one, and truly I don't really like the stool.
Steinway and Sons : Living Room Grand (model O). 180 cm (5' 10 3/4''). See, this is smaller than both of 'em! I can put it in my living room or library! I love the stool :) it looks comfortable.
At last! Steinway and Sons : Concert Grand (model D), 274 cm (8' 11 3/4''), wtf I don't have big space for this one! But this looks so precious, luxurious, and.. *aaaargh! gotta get that! I have to work for.. umh.. I can't imagine 'bout the price :'(( Here are another pianos from Steinway and Sons (and please don't think about the price!) :

Moving to the next brand, Yamaha is my second favorite piano brand. I found it almost everywhere! My friend's house, music class, piano class, restaurants, hotels, yeah almost everywhere! But still, again and again, I'm concerning about Grand Pianos (dunno why I keep thinking of Grands, not Uprights).


The smallest (left), Yamaha GB1 A-PE Grand Piano. The most affordable Yamaha Grand Piano Ever! (the shop said). Okay, go to the next piano.

The bigger one (center), Yamaha DC3A Disklavier Grand Piano. It has lenght 186 cm and width 149 cm. More special features are below :
  • Built-in amplified speaker system
Incorporating a stereo (60W + 60W) audio system with dual two-way speakers, the Mark III Series pianos are totally self-contained musical entertainment systems. Enjoy ensemble concerts without external equipment. Or play the digital piano in Quiet model without disturbing others.
  • PianoSmart TMsynchronization
PianoSmart is a truly revolutionary breakthrough in Disklavier technology that intelligently synchronizes Disklavier recording and playback with the operation of the built-in CD player, allowing you to record yourself playing along with CDs of your favorite artisits. Compatible with the MTC (MIDI Time code) standard, PianoSmart can even synchronize Disklavier recording and playback with external devises, such as multi-track recorders and video cameras, through use of a MIDI sync box.

The biggest one (right), Yamaha CFIIIS PE Grand Piano. The biggest but also the most expensive one. In length 275 cm and width 160 cm.

Wow.. so many pianos, dunno what to choose :P
