Superb Silky Action & Precision Hammers

The most complicated part of any piano is the action as it is made up of a thousand parts. All these parts must be of the highest quality to ensure long life and smooth play of your piano. Our Renner style action uses seasoned hardwoods and state of the art carbon composites for durability and dynamic control. All bushings and dampers are the highest quality German felt. Our precision hammers are crafted from seasoned hardwoods and the Abel hammer heads and shanks are covered in the finest 100% German virgin wool felt. Weimar takes no short cuts in the quality of our piano components. For the ultimate in expression and responsiveness our grand touch is in your hands.

The Finest Strings.

There are over two hundred strings in a grand piano and each one must perform flawlessly every time. Weimar uses only the finest high grade polished German steel with hand wound solid copper windings. These German Rauslau strings are without equal in piano manufacturing. Stretched over a solid sand cast iron plate they produce incredible sound and resonance usually associated with pianos costing twice the price.

Dilignit Style Pinblocks.

The strings exert a great amount of pressure when stretched around the pinblock. This part of the grand piano is designed to reduce maintenance and keep the piano in tune over time. Weimar uses German Dilignit style 17 ply pinblocks. This ensures a lifetime of musical enjoyment and dependability.

Select Solid Spruce Soundboard.

The soundboard is essential for the sound quality therefore making it the heart of any acoustic grand piano. Weimar ensures that our soundboards are the best of the besting a rigorous selection process. For starters, only high grade quarter sawn Sitka spruce with ten growth rings per square inch will do. Next bridges are made from select hard woods and kiln dried to proper humidity. Finally the full length ribs are painstakingly notched into the rim liner of the piano to ensure that the all important crown of the soundboard remains for the lifetime of the piano. These steps ensure a quality of sound that resonates with a full rich bass, warm middle register and a crisp, clear treble. Played together the entire range produces exceptional concert hall sound.
