How do you know if your baby grand piano is worth anything?

Answer 1

Piano values are not simply determined by age and/or model, and as such there is no simple blue book for pianos.

Taken into account is the condition, not only the outward appearance, but inside, the condition of the strings, the action (hammers, felt, leather, wood) the piano keys themselves - too many variables apply to say that Piano XYZ built by Company ABC built in 1908 is worth so many dollars. It will be best to consult with a local piano tuner or piano technicians guild in your area.

Answer 2

A concert grand is usually between 8 and 9 foot long. A studio grand is usually between 5 foot 5 inches and 7 foot long.

A baby grand is usually 4 to 4 foot 6 inches long

All grand pianos are approximately the same width because nearly all of them have 88 keys. Some Austrian Bosendorfer grands have a few extra keys and are a bit wider.

Answer 3

Most all pianos come with a serial number (underneath on the boards below the keys if it's a baby grand or grand, on inside on the metal work if it's a stand up or other pianos similar) some stand up pianos may also come with a year engraved on the metal work

Answer 4

Condition of its exterior and interior is the most important factor in determining value, not the date of manufacture.
