The attention to detail is insane. They even put that red fabric on the short lid holder (or whatever the stick that keeps the lid up is called lol) for extra protection
Back in the mid 1980's i was working in a Bechstein dealership Also we carried Feurich (Gunzenhausen) and Schimmel. Does this ever take me back to when I was a mere 31 years old!
Well, I now have a reason to play the lottery! This would be my dream piano. By the way, I love your accent and your resemble Liam Cunningham the actor
Had no idea what went into setting up a new grand to be playable. Though some of this might be unique to Fazioli. Would have been interesting if you mentioned how it's different setting up a Steinway or a Yamaha. As different companies will go to different lengths. What's also interested me was seeing how it's possible to turn a 900 piano from it's side onto it's legs using this one device and one strong delivery man. With what looked like ease. Surprising because when I was a boy and my family got our baby grand 2 delivery guys were there. Not the biggest beefiest guys. Who did manages to let it "slip while on it's side while getting it from the truck to our home. Chipped the piano...and I don't recall what "measures" my parents took afterwards with the shop. And this was a baby grand. Clearly the 2 weren't qualified enough. And I don't remember if the shop was even one of the "better shops" in our city of Toronto. So the shop to save costs...
Hi Ian, it is a wonderful video. And also, It is a VERY unique and expensive video/experience I believe. I wonder how long it takes to "order" a Fazioli from its factory. If someone wants to purchase a new one, would it be possible to go to Fazioli's showroom to pick? Or what would it be like to buy one from Fazioli's exclusive dealer like yours. Thanks.
I don’t own a Fazioli, but I have visited showrooms before. I know the pianos take multiple years to make. You can choose one at a showroom/dealer to my knowledge.
@@tongbunsing I actually cannot tell you the exact prices of Fazioli in Europe (or Germany for that matter) but I think the 212 model is considerably less expensive. The larger models …yes .. I‘d say for them the price you mentioned is about realistic
@@bikemike1118A few years ago I was choosing between a Faz, Sauter and Steinway. I was quoted nearly 100k for a brand new 212, and with a near 18-month lead time - prices are very similar to a Hamburg B with perhaps a small premium. Bought Sauter in the end, wasn't enough difference in it to justify the enormous price differential.
FAZIOLI FTW!
What a lovely instrument :-)

How much does it cost?

Please ship to Bangkok for me. It's my dream piano.
Bangkok is too humid for that kind of grand pianos 😉
@@bikemike1118 We have representative here but the retail price is about 200,000 USD. Is this price same over there?

@@bikemike1118 a Colder climate brings more problems. Also, they have a new patented triple layer soundboard which is more forgiving.
