NEW Wm. Knabe WG-49 Grand EBHP | ILNCG0063

The William Knabe WG-49 is a compact 4’9″ baby grand piano from the Baltimore Series, manufactured in Indonesia and designed to fit comfortably in smaller rooms without sacrificing musical presence. Typically finished in high-polish ebony, it blends the traditional elegance associated with the Knabe name with modern construction techniques and materials.

At its core, the WG-49 features a spruce soundboard—valued for its resonance and tonal warmth—paired with a durable 16-ply maple pinblock that helps maintain tuning stability over time. Despite its smaller size, the instrument is engineered to deliver a balanced tone and responsive touch, making it suitable for both casual players and more serious pianists working in limited space.

Many models are equipped with a factory-installed QRS Pianomation 3 player system, allowing for automated playback, recording capabilities, and integration with digital music libraries. This combination of classic craftsmanship and contemporary technology makes the WG-49 a versatile option for those seeking both performance and convenience in a compact grand piano.
