This is the "Orchestral" model, which in both technical design and tone was the finest square piano ever designed or built! This is the ultimate in a square piano; the scaling of the strings is a radical departure from all others and the tone throughout the scale approaches that of a modern 7' grand piano. Strings are on three levels; bass, tenor, and treble bridges; tri-strung in treble section with a capo bar cast into the plate. If the old look is desired, combined with a modern quality sound, then this is the only square piano that can deliver!
