Pianos are like humans.<\/h2>\n
Optimum lifespan of a Grand piano is about 30-40 and 40-50 years for uprights. They then gradually loose their volume, their responsiveness, agility and singing tone who turns into a harsh, shallow and short knocking noise.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, it is hard to give an accurate aging estimate which is greatly influenced by the original quality, the living conditions and the service of the instruments.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We still find fair bargains of pre-owned pianos mainly from Japan but we have to think twice as new modern Asian (mainly Chinese) pianos recently exhibit\u00a0an excellent price\/quality ratio.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Historical value is granted to the piano of over 150 years of age from a period where they just started to take the shape and form we now know. Otherwise it is not economically feasible\u00a0to restore an old piano, unless we are tied with a strong sentimental bond.<\/div>\n
