Schimmel C 213 Tradition Grand Piano - Concert Sound | Piano Gallery, Idaho Falls
The Schimmel C 213 Tradition represents the pinnacle of German piano craftsmanship, delivering the rich, velvety tones and responsive touch of a full-size concert grand in a 7-foot format. This exceptional instrument features innovative design elements transferred directly from Schimmel's acclaimed K 280 concert grand, making it ideal for serious pianists and professional performers who demand concert-quality sound and touch.
Product Overview
The C 213 Tradition showcases Schimmel's renowned construction quality with a prestressed keybed, three-dimensional crowned soundboard, and carefully selected tone woods from specialized German regions. The ebony high gloss finish provides both stunning visual appeal and optimal acoustic properties, while the horizontal soundboard enlargement maximizes tonal projection and sustain.
This grand piano incorporates Schimmel's innovative "Trilogy" concept, where the sound system and action characteristics from their concert grand K 280 are integrated into smaller models. The result is unprecedented tonal depth in the middle and treble registers, combined with the dynamic range and touch sensitivity that professional pianists expect from instruments twice its size.
Advanced engineering features include a mass-reduced bridge for enhanced resonance, dynamic soundbar technology, and a multilayered pin block for superior tuning stability. The concert grand scale and Triplex scale system ensure optimal string tension and harmonic development across all registers.
