Piano Brands – Where to start? Piano Buyer’s Guide Pt. 2
When you begin looking for a new or pre-owned piano, the number of options can be intimidating. Owning a piano is an investment, and you want to make sure you pick the right model.

Next, think about your price range. Below you’ll find a price range to expect for popular consumer grade piano brands.
