A brand new piano with a state-of-the-art action

As piano service professionals, we carefully selected Mason & Hamlin as the brand we wanted to represent in Vermont and eastern New York.  Their Artist Series in particular is delivers enormous performance and value by combining Mason & Hamlin’s state-of-the-art piano carbon fiber composite piano action with high quality, modern, Asian manufacturing.  In addition to delivering consistency and high performance, the carbon fiber parts wear much more slowly vs. traditional parts, and they are impervious to humidity cycling.

This piano is tall, and it shows in the clear, powerful bass.  Its tone is clear and sonorous, and it has an incredibly smooth action.  It’s finish, like the rest of the piano, is new.

The model MHA-131U is an concert-level vertical piano that would serve beautifully in performance settings that can’t accommodate a grand piano.

From the manufacturer

RICH HERITAGE COMBINED WITH MASTERFUL DESIGN.

The Artist Series draws upon Mason & Hamlin’s over 160 years of experience to create a truly remarkable piano. Solid Spruce soundboards provide brilliant and beautiful sound that only improves with age. Strong, resilient Beech rims expertly reflect sound and tonal sustain for the highest caliber of play, and an exclusive Wessell, Nickel & Gross Composite Action gives pianists the ultimate control. Together, these elements create an instrument that is truly best-in-class in response, control, and sound.

THE BEST MATERIALS FOR THE BEST CONTROL.

Made from state-of-the-art materials, Wessell, Nickel & Gross Composite Actions not only provide pianists incredible ease of touch, but also the durability to outperform any wooden action by over three times as long.*

Unlike wood, composite materials do not respond to moisture or temperature change. That means less maintenance, dramatically reduced regulation, and complete trust in your piano.

*action parts, excluding hammers or keys

EXPERTLY DESIGNED, EXPERTLY CRAFTED.

Manufactured globally, the Artist Series follows in the footsteps of Mason & Hamlin’s legendary design and legacy of tradition and innovation.
