Genuine Original German Piano | Ibach Baby Grand Piano

Today we have an Ibach piano! We normally do not get these pianos like this, but I am so so so excited because I'm a piano technician, and this is an Ibach baby grand piano, made in 1911 in Germany.

These pianos are so highly regarded for us technicians, we rarely see them; I personally have only seen probably two or three of them in my entire life! I've never had one in the store, and I've never seen one in Arizona here either, and we did buy this from a local seller here in Arizona, and we worked with this lady for a very long time, she did not want to sell this piano for anywhere near what we wanted to pay for it, but we finally closed the deal. I think it was about a year and a half worth of talking to her about this Ibach piano!

So what makes these things so cool is that first of all Ibach is the oldest German piano manufacturer in Germany, so they've been; I think they're on their sixth or seventh generation right now, they started in the 1700s and their grandsons is still running it to this day.

Another really cool thing about Ibach is it is the company that invented - or not invented - but came up with the idea of using cast iron as the plate, before that we weren't using cast iron and this switching to cast iron really allowed the piano to be strong at a tighter tension, which made the piano louder. So it would fill larger concert halls and stuff like this, and they were the ones who kind of came up with that, so that's a huge deal.

So in a normal baby grand or grand piano, or even an upright piano; you have your normal treble wire, and then you have bass strings stacked on top of the treble wire, and that's what we call a stack, but at this Ibach piano we have two stacks, that's super unique, I've never seen this before!
