Greetings all -- I just worked on a very nice four year old Ottostein upright piano. The family is Chinese and they purchased the piano new in Hong Kong. Just last month they moved to Los Angeles. The piano was shipped out and arrived about two weeks ago. Pierce doesn't list the name. But on the piano was a sticker that said Tom Lee Piano Co., which appeared to me at the time to be the name of the store where the piano was purchased. From a Google search it appears that Tom Lee is actually a manufacturer AND a retail outlet with stores in China, Hong Kong and Canada. Pierce indicates that Tom Lee actually makes pianos at its factory in Kowloon, Hong Kong, but Ottostein is not listed in the Pierce Atlas. (The piano has a very low serial number so that's not surprising.) Parts, and the serial number, KJLG 00254, look very similar to the new Knabe, but I can't at the moment remember whose making those. Does anyone have any experience or further knowledge of Ottostein? There is absolutely nothing wrong with this piano. I'm just curious. Especially since I can't find anything.
