True Excellence By Design

Materials

True Excellence By Design

Steinway Designed Rim Shape

The rim contributes to the stability of the piano, offering support for the soundboard. The Essex grand piano outer rim is made of laminations of European Maple (Acer platanoides) while the inner rim is made of laminated European Beech (Fagus sylvatica).

Wide-Tail

The wide-tail design featured on all Essex grands is a special innovation by Steinway & Sons that creates 6% more surface area in the soundboard. This enriches the sound, giving the pianist the impression of playing on a larger instrument. The larger soundboard area also allows for better placement of the bass bridge – which yields more volume, greater tone, and a bass that sings.

Steinway-Designed Pinblock

Essex pinblocks are made using hard maple wood. The multi directional layers of wood grips the pins from several directions, assuring a tight fit, uniform pressure and smoother tuning.
