Samick is the founder of the European hybrid piano movement (EHP). EHP combine a top notch piano designer, high density of European components and affordable Asian labor rates. Brands like Knabe and Pramberger paved the way for the modern Ritmuller, Kayserburg and Perzina EHP.

Before Steinway dealers were gifted the Essex line of pianos, pianos built by Pearl River for Steinway; Steinway dealers typically carried the Kohler and Campbell line of pianos.

K & C pianos was an American made piano established in 1896. They were known for producing good quality pianos at an affordable price. Samick acquired the brand in the early 2000s and have been producing pianos in Samick’s Korean and Indonesian factories for nearly two decades.

This model feature tonal release vents at the top, on either side of the music desk and one large tonal release port on the bottom panel.  This design allows the piano’s tone to fully sing through the barrier all upright pianos face, that is the wooden box which traps much of the sound from escaping.

If you are shopping for a quality preowned Yamaha, Kawai, Boston or Essex piano in Tampa you will want to audition this and hundreds more, at Dave’s Piano Showroom of Tampa Bay.

Samick is still one of the biggest piano makers in the world today.  Korean quality workmanship is well known around the world in Samsung and Android products.  This pride in workmanship dates back to the 1950s in the original Korean Samick piano factory.  Music and piano playing are absolutely huge in Korea, with nearly every child required to play piano starting in grade school.

Dave’s Piano Showroom sold this piano new, in the mid-2000s for nearly $6,000.  The pianos’ hammer felts reflect less than a year of play!  This is precisely what one should look for in a piano.  Additionally, the pinblock is in the 99th percentile, with plenty of tuning stability to last decades!  The copper wound bass strings and the steel treble wire are in a new state.  This means the piano has been in a stable climate for its entire life.

At just $3995 including local, ground floor delivery, tuning and warranty this is an incredible value!
