Weber

Weber Piano was born on 8th July 1828, in Bavaria province of Germany. Being known as a perfectionist and piano prodigy, Albert Weber, the founder of Weber Piano, was not satisfied with the available pianos back then. Thus, he moved to New York in year 1844 and learnt from D.J. Van Winkle and Charles Holder, the popular piano makers in America at that time. 8 years later, the first Weber Piano store was opened in West Broadway. From year 1852 onwards, Weber Company manufactured high-rated vertical and horizontal piano that were then sold to upper class residents of Eastern United States, Royal home in Europe and the Vatican. It became a priced possession for many notable artists such as Ignacy Paderewski and Moriz Rosenthal and then signed an official brand management contract with Aeolian Co.. After that in 1987, Young Chang, a piano manufacturer which was originated from South Korea, took over Weber Piano.

Although Weber tone is not plain as compared to Young Chang piano, many see eye to eye that the cutting-edge series are representation of Young Chang platinum series and its professional artist series. Nevertheless, they are redesigned by Delwin D Frandich, a world-renowned American piano maker, which are then known as the Weber D series. He put forward two new models in the Weber line - W112 and W114. New features of D series are as follows:

A completely new frame and round tapered soundboard design

Rescaled stringing

New tenor and bass bridges

Longer back scales through the bass and other features that enhance bass response

Smoother transition across the tenor break

A better tone balance throughout the scale

New upgraded Royal George felted hammers, utilising a special cold press process

which preserves felt resilience, improves pianissimo and timbral dynamic

AA grade solid Alaskan stika spruce soundboards for upright models

AAA grade solid Alaskan stika spruce soundboards for grand models
