Depth: 39.25″ (99.7 cm)

Construction and notable materials
This model incorporates a wooden action (hard rock maple or hornbeam) CNC-machined for precise response. The action rod is made of extruded aluminum and the beams are made of Manchurian walnut, providing solidity to the frame.

Sound and mechanical components
The soundboard is of selected solid spruce and the bridge is laminated with a maple cap to improve sound transmission. The cast plate has been CNC-machined and the strings come from Röslau (Germany), with the bass strings wound in copper.

Keyboard and mechanisms
Keyboard in spruce wood with black keys of genuine ebony; Renner hammers (Germany) of recognized reputation. It features a middle full sostenuto pedal, a 19-ply laminated maple pinblock cold-pressed, and a slow-close fallboard with solid brass fittings.

Design and origin
The GH170R was redesigned under the direction of German designer Lothar Thomma to integrate European tradition and production efficiency. Ritmüller retains historical roots dating from 1795 and, after its relaunch by the Pearl River group since 2009, maintains a focus on quality and European design accompanied by modern manufacturing processes.

Perception and value
In informal reviews, technicians and tuners note that the GH170R “is a decent piano, better than some Pearl River ones I’ve seen,” which indicates a favorable appraisal within its segment.
