Steinway & Sons Model M Grand Piano - c1994

Steinway & Sons built this Model M grand piano in Hamburg around 1994. It stands as a fine example of this well-proportioned and highly regarded model, widely chosen for its versatility and musical capability. At 5’7” (170cm), the Model M suits the home well, offering a balanced combination of musical presence and practical proportions. It fits comfortably within many domestic settings while delivering the tonal depth, colour and projection expected from a Steinway grand. This size provides enough scale for expressive playing without overwhelming the room.

The previous owner clearly cherished the instrument and maintained it carefully throughout its life. Technician Jeff Shackell carried out regular maintenance and fitted a new top action in 2019, supporting continued responsiveness and reliability. Our workshop team has since fully serviced the piano. John Ross, former Head Technician at Steinway & Sons UK, completed the final regulation and setup. His work ensures the piano performs to a high musical and technical standard.The piano produces a warm, resonant tone typical of this era of Steinway. The matured soundboard adds depth and richness that newer instruments often take years to develop. This maturity gives a pleasing tonal character across all registers, with an even balance from bass through to treble.

The casework remains in very good condition. The overall presentation reflects careful ownership and consistent professional maintenance.With a new Steinway Model M now exceeding £100,000, this instrument presents a rare opportunity to acquire a proven Hamburg Steinway grand. It offers both musical enjoyment and long-term value in a highly respected and enduring model.
