USED Boston GP163 EP | 166150

The Boston GP‑163 is a 5′ 4″ (163 cm) baby grand piano designed by Steinway & Sons and built to their specifications, often manufactured in Japan, making it a high‑quality choice for musicians who want performance features derived from Steinway design without the cost of a full Steinway grand. The Performance Edition II (PE II) version enhances many aspects of the instrument, including a Hard Rock Maple inner rim, an Octagrip pin block for tuning stability, and a tapered solid Sitka spruce soundboard for richer tone and sustain.

The GP‑163’s wide‑tail design and carefully rescaled string system help it produce a sound that feels larger and more resonant than its 5′ 4″ length might suggest, with strong dynamic range and clarity suited for both serious practice and performance settings. Additional professional features include all‑wood action parts, synthetic ivory and ebony key covers, a slow‑fall fallboard, full sostenuto pedal, and polished brass hardware, giving it both a refined playing experience and elegant presence.

Because of this combination of expressive tone, robust construction, and design pedigree, the Boston GP‑163 is often recommended for teachers, advancing students, and home musicians seeking a professional‑oriented grand that fits within a moderate space and budget.
