Concert C 6

The soundboard and ribs are made from specially selected, fine-grained European mountain spruce, which is stored for years and dried carefully.

Six highly robust, quadruple-laminated braces made of layers of solid pine form the stable backbone of the upright piano. This premium quality construction guarantees climatic stability as well as impressive tonal volume and exceptional tuning stability.

High-quality pinblock material made from cross-laminated and compacted sheets of beech veneer for excellent, even tunability and tuning stability.

Quality tuning pins made from nickel-plated steel. Balanced torque, low torsion, excellent tunability and tuning stability.

The cast-iron frame has the stability needed to withstand the enormous string-tension. Thanks to the careful sizing and traditional method of sand casting by hand, the cast-iron frame also enhances the sound.

Made from quality piano wire with high tensile strength and valuable copper wire from Germany, the strings have been calculated to maximize string length with balanced registers, harmonious overtone spectrum and excellent tuning stability. The strings are held in place by agraffes in keeping with C. Bechstein’s traditional design.

The highly reliable C. Bechstein actions are developed in-house and allow perfect control and execution in any position of the key movement and offer quick repetition as well as a pleasant and even touch. Every key is balanced individually.

A quality keyboard made of solid spruce keys, man-made white key tops with a pleasant grip and ebony sharps. Precise key movements with high-quality, wear-resistant bushing felt.

Concert: 3 pedals: Piano (una corda), moderator (optional Sostenuto) and forte (damper).
Resicence: 3 pedals: Piano (una corda), moderator and forte (damper).

Developed and produced in-house, C. Bechstein hammerheads are a significant and consistent factor in the unique sound of the C. Bechstein Concert & Resicence lines – made with the highest-quality elastic felt and walnut mouldings. The intricate, multi-stage process of voicing is carried out by selected C. Bechstein master piano craftspeople and concert technicians.
