Greetings Alan, The Knabe grands are made to the original Baltimore scales. Features that make it different from other Asian pianos. Laminated maple rim construction. Sand cast plate, vs the cheaper V pro method. 100% Renner action. Renner premium Blue hammers. The bridges are no longer coated in Graphite, and are CNC drilled and notched. Vertical hard maple laminated bridge with tradition hard maple bridge cap. Andre Bolduc sound board White northern spruce. Panels are Pre seasoned in Canada to 4%MC Crowned ribs. These pianos when prepped will hold their own with any major quality manufacturer Regards Roger Jolly Technical consultant.
