The Steinway Model S is a five-foot-one baby grand piano that brings the Steinway name and craftsmanship into smaller living spaces, delivering the legendary Steinway tone in the most compact grand piano format the company offers. Like all Steinway grand pianos, the Model S is handcrafted using the same materials, techniques, and quality standards applied to the concert grand Model D. The rim is bent from layers of hard rock maple, the soundboard is Sitka spruce, and the action is Steinway's proprietary Accelerated Action with individually weighted hammers. The resulting tone is unmistakably Steinway with a warm, complex character that rewards expressive playing with rich overtones and beautiful sustain. The action is responsive and precise, allowing nuanced dynamic control from pianissimo to fortissimo. Despite its smaller footprint, the Model S projects surprisingly well in intimate settings and recording environments. The polished ebony cabinet is elegant and timeless, making it a stunning centerpiece in any room. Every Model S undergoes the same year-long construction process and meticulous hand-finishing as its larger siblings. This piano is perfect for serious pianists with limited space, luxury home installations, and collectors seeking an authentic Steinway experience in a compact format. The shorter string length does mean the bass register cannot match the depth and power of Steinway's larger models.
