Inside the Charles R. Walter upright - why they sound so good and are built so well |
|
Long Strings: The Walter uprights have longer strings than any other piano on the market under 51 inches tall. If you thought you needed to buy a 5’10” grand piano or larger to get long strings for a big bass and a full tone, then you need to try a Charles R. Walter upright piano. |
|
Big Soundboard: The Walter upright soundboard is nearly 2100 square inches of solid spruce. That’s bigger than most 5’8” grand piano soundboards. Long strings and a large solid spruce soundboard are two main ingredients for beautiful tone in a piano. |
|
Even Touch and Quick Response: The “feel” of the Walter uprights comes from their large studio-size action and their carefully balanced extra-long grand piano-like keys. The Walter upright pianos have the longest keys of all brands of console and studio pianos... over 16 inches. The keys are individually weighted like the finest grand pianos. |
|
100% Pure Lumber Core: You won’t find any flakecore, chipboard or cardboard in the Walter pianos. Even their huge soundboard is solid spruce, not laminated, but solid. This is part of the reason they sound so good and look so good... for a lifetime. Do not settle for anything less than the real thing - WOOD. |
