The eye listens too – this is why the combination of first-class sound and corresponding design is so vital. The unostentatiously elegant C130 Tradition is one of the great pianos of its type and an instrument of excellence in itself. Touch and tone are harmonised perfectly from the powerful bass notes up to the sparkling treble register. We also delivery the black polished version with an oval panel inlay – a small but effective stylistic element.
