What does it feel like to play a great Steinway? For this client, the best part is disappearing into the music. Whatever is bothering him falls away, and there's only the music.

[Todd Lindeblad @tlindeblad]

Every Steinway soundboard we build is crafted to fit its piano's inner rim, since no two pianos are identical. It's made with Alaskan Sitka spruce from Steinway's supplier and shaped by hand by Galo and Adams, who both worked at Steinway: Galo for 30 years and Adams for 5 years.

Is a restored Steinway still a Steinway? We hear that question a lot. Here's the answer from a three-time Grammy-nominated musician about his Lindeblad-restored 1924 Steinway B.

[Todd Lindeblad @tlindeblad]

New strings go onto a Steinway one at a time, by hand. My cousin Pete, who has been stringing pianos for 20 years, fits each one to its tuning pin using strings from the same supplier Steinway uses.

[Todd Lindeblad @tlindeblad]

How long does a restored Steinway last? Hammers, strings and felts give out over 50 to 60 years, while the rim and the cast plate hold up far longer. Replace what's worn, and a 106-year-old Steinway gets to start over.

Many Steinways are passed down through families, and in mine, so is the work of restoring them.

My family has worked with Steinways since 1920, and my uncle Eric, the third generation, is now passing that legacy on to his sons, my brother Sean and me.

A Steinway is only as good as the people who touch it before it reaches you. That's why every Steinway we sell is thoroughly inspected by our own master craftsmen before it goes out, and we own the moving company that brings it to your door.

In the end, we win.
