Whats Wrong Calling An Older Steinway Piano used?

It was in Shakespeares Romeo and Juliet where we first heard the line spoken by Romeo who said: What's in a name

? That which we call a rose/ By any other name would smell as sweet What does all this mean for us? It means that it matters what something is, not what it is called. So what does this have to do with pianos? Especially used Steinway Grand Pianos? The only kind we trade at www.American-Steinway.com?

Well it means just about everything! You see, the word used in our society, sounds old, decrepit, wasted, and ready to be discarded. We could sit here and fret about the lack of respect some old is, and how we tend to look at societys older people as used-up. But with pianos, this isnt necessarily the case. Used doesnt have to have such a negative connotation. And especially with pianosit is just a clich for saying that is has been played and/or owned by another owner. That is all. It doesnt mean useless or ready to be pitched out. And if you really begin to think about it, it isnt like an automobile, where once it is off the car lot, the value begins to fall precipitously. No in fact, the opposite is true with Steinway Pianos. As the Steinway piano

becomes more used, it ages not just graciouslybut rather, it becomes more valuable.

So in this sense, used is not only not bad, it is good! A used still has excellent resell value. It can be rebuilt and then made to be even more valuable than its un-rebuilt Steinway neighbor. It can be left alone for many years, and then brought back to life and sound so wonderfulwith that aged, luscious sound that was only possible after many years of waiting.

So one must not think of used as the end of the line for a beautiful Steinway. Rather, one should think of it like an antique in that it will become more valuable over time.

What do you think of when you hear the word used? We all try to use euphemisms to help us through this term, even in the piano business. We dont always call older pianos Pre-owned, but we do say, original condition, needing to be restored, time-traveler, and other such words to help us understand the condition of the Steinway piano, but in reality, all of these words point to the same thinga piano that is not new. But again, lets not get caught up in what is a name.for a Steinway piano called by any other name, would be as sweet, and as luscious, if not even more so, than its newer counterpart! So go aheadfind that used Steinway Piano you have been looking forand get not just a beautiful piano that sounds wonderful, get yourself an investment that will continue to appreciate and grow over time. What a beautiful way to say used!
