Measuring in at 6’4 1/2”, The Model A-3 is much larger than the previous Model A Grands and features a greater power and range of tone. It is considered to be very comparable to what has been dubbed the ‘perfect piano’, the Steinway Model B. These pianos were more affordable than the Model B, was more manageable in size and produced a sound and power that was most definitely on par with its 6’11” brethren. Production of this piano at the New York factory started at 1914. The Model A-III continued in production until the mid 40’s. In 1945 the Model A-III was discontinued by Steinway New York. Reliable rumors indicate that production ceased due to the competition it created for the larger and more expensive Model B. Price: $19,500 or best offer
