Schafer & sons pianos have been manufactured in many different factorys around the world. Almost every piano manufacture in the u.s. (besides steinway) made schafer & sons at one time or another..
But if you send me a serial # i can tell you where and when it was made..
Because Schubert Piano Co. pianos were manufactured years ago, they are not considered to be very high quality, especially when compared with modern pianos.
The Wissner Piano Company (also known as Wissner & Sons) was established by Otto Wissner and his sons, William and Otto, Jr. in 1878. Their factories were located in Brooklyn, New York. Wissner is one of the lesser-known American piano manufacturers who built superb pianos of the highest quality and construction, but because of poor marketing, never achieved the world wide recognition they deserved. Their pianos were some of the finest, most expensive pianos money could buy. In addition to building pianos under the Wissner and Wissner & Sons brand names, the firm built pianos under the brand names of Leckerling, Reinhard, and Putnam. In the early 20th Century the firm was controlled by the Jansen Piano Company. The Wissner Company went out of business in about 1942 with the onset of World War 2.

Actually electric pianos did not replace acoustic pianos. There are literally millions of acoustic pianos in the united states alone, and more being bought every week. I personally see about 1000 pianos a year because I work as a piano tuner/technician. Electric pianos do come in handy for traveling to gigs, but acoustic pianos are very much alive and well.
No, Emerson pianos are not good.
Bösendorfer then Bechstein then Steinway&Sons and then Yamaha

this is a hard question because it really depends on the taste of the piano player. The steinway&sons grand pianos have a good reputation, but there are a lot of other brands such as Bösendorfer, Bechstein, Petrof you name it. A name that has to be mentioned is the brand of Fazioli grand pianos. They are hand made, very expensive, and are said to be among the finest grand pianos of the world.
