Their pianos are known for their durability, unique tone, and high-quality craftsmanship. The recent Model B is a grand piano designed for professional studios and home use.
It measures 5'4, making it a perfect fit for smaller spaces but with the sound quality of a much larger piano. Mason & Hamlin pianos are known for their rich, resonant, and clear sound. The Model B, despite its smaller size, has a deep bass and a resonant treble range. Overall amazing touch and experience to play this piano.
The Mason & Hamlin Model B is made with high-quality materials and is meticulously crafted. It features a solid spruce soundboard, hard rock maple rim, and Mason & Hamlin's patented Tension Resonator, which helps the piano retain its shape and sound quality over time. The WNG (Wessell, Nickel, and Gross) action in Mason & Hamlin pianos is highly responsive and durable, providing excellent control for the pianist. Mason & Hamlin pianos tend to hold their value well due to their high-quality craftsmanship and the brand's reputation.
Compared to other brands in the same price range, like Steinway & Sons or Bösendorfer, Fazioli. Mason & Hamlin offers comparable sound quality and craftsmanship. Some people even prefer the unique tonal quality of Mason & Hamlin pianos. In my humble opinion based what I experienced recently playing similar size Fazioli and even bigger Steinways this particular one Mason surpass all of them.
