Gerh. Steinberg, a German Brand from London

Gerh. Steinberg, a German upright piano brand originating from Berlin, known as G. Steinberg, is a renowned piano brand whose roots trace back to Berlin where it was founded in 1908. This German brand quickly gained recognition for the excellent quality of its upright pianos, contributing to its dynamic growth in its early years. Between 1993-1998, the brand was managed by Whelpdale, Maxwell & Codd Ltd., a London-based company known for producing prestigious pianos like Broadwood, Welmar, and Knight. These changes introduced innovative approaches and techniques in the piano production process.

In 2003, the rights to the brand were acquired by Music Brothers International BV, transferring the production to the Perzina factory in Yantai, China. Since then, Gerh. Steinberg upright pianos have been manufactured as an independent line but still maintain European quality standards by using high-grade components sourced from Europe.

Outstanding Quality and Sturdy Construction

Gerh. Steinberg upright pianos stand out for their sturdy construction, especially due to reinforcements at the back of the instrument. They are built using European Sitka spruce soundboards, German pinblocks, hammer felt, and Roslau strings – similar to those used in Perzina pianos.
