At The Piano Place, we’ve seen many passionate musicians walk through our doors in search of the perfect instrument. But some stories stand out—like the one Grant recently shared about a customer whose dedication to finding the right piano took him on an unforgettable journey.
It all started when a gentleman from California came across our listing for a Bösendorfer 290 CEUS, one of the most exquisite concert grand pianos in the world. The moment he saw it online, he knew he had to have it. But instead of making a decision from a distance, he did something extraordinary—he booked a flight, traveled across the country, and arrived at our showroom, determined to experience the piano in person.
When he sat down to play, it was clear—this was the one. The Bösendorfer’s legendary tone, precision, and craftsmanship spoke to him in a way that no other piano had. After just a few hours of playing, discussing, and finalizing the details, he made the purchase.
Then, as quickly as he had arrived, he was on a plane back home—his dream piano now officially his.
For Grant, this was more than just a sale. It was a testament to the lengths musicians will go to find the perfect instrument. It was a reminder that music is not just about sound; it’s about connection, passion, and a deep understanding of what feels right.
At The Piano Place, we don’t just sell pianos—we help musicians find their piano, no matter where they are. If you’re searching for an instrument that speaks to you, we’re here to help make it happen.
