Usado, Steinway & Sons, B-211

This Steinway & Sons B‑211 has been carefully preserved and comprehensively rebuilt to modern standards.

A full-scale restoration completed in 2012 included planing and refinishing of the soundboard, sandblasting and repainting of the cast‑iron frame, and reinforcement of the pinblock (wrestplank doubling). All strings were replaced; the pinblock and tuning pins were renewed.

The action was fully overhauled: hammerheads and hammer shanks were exchanged, dampers were renewed and all felts refreshed. A specialist maker, Kluge, produced a bespoke keyboard for the instrument; where practicable the original natural keytops were re-filed and re-installed.

The piano was converted from a two‑pedal to a three‑pedal setup and the case was finished in a uniform high‑gloss black polyester.

Around 2018 a Steinway specialist carried out re‑regulation and re‑intonation. The instrument is tuned twice a year and has been kept in a climate‑controlled, humidity‑stabilised environment.

Technical summary: Steinway & Sons B‑211 — 211 cm length, 85 keys, 3 pedals. Condition: used. The owner is selling due to relocation abroad. Price is negotiable.
