Nowdays the standard choice for a low price respectable hard working and durable piano is a Chinese brand. Most European, Korean and Japanese piano makers who survived Globalization have moved to China.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are more than twenty Chinese makers with more coming up every year producing no more unacceptable pianos. They are all middle to high quality products with a handful of them close with fine European pianos.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are only a few Western makers still alive after a long and painful struggle\u00a0with the Far East.
