Whether you are a beginner or professional musician, Ritmüller pianos make an excellent choice.
Production
Ritmüller has established itself as a class-leading range of upright and grand pianos. They make careful material selections and use the latest production processes. Attention to detail on each piano is second to none, and they don’t outsource any part of their piano production. This full control over the manufacturing process ensures a consistently high-quality piano.
High Quality Materials
Ritmüller use seasoned hardwoods of the highest quality for each application in every piano. They make Grand Piano rims from walnut, a dense hardwood. The result is a warmer, richer tone which sustains for longer. Rock maple is used to craft the bridges and pin-blocks, and close-grained, high-quality northern spruce is used to create specially engineered soundboards. Using high-quality wood creates a superior-quality musical instrument that will last a lifetime.
Top Class Soundboard
Pearl River soundboards use 100% close-grained high-altitude northern spruce. A solid spruce core ensures maximum transference of energy across the soundboard. As a result, the solid spruce core delivers a lively tone and responsiveness, which are normally only associated with top-class piano manufacturers.
Each face of the solid spruce soundboard also has an offset thin epidermal layer of spruce. This helps prevent the fear of cracking that can be associated with some older pianos. Extreme climates or centrally heated homes without humidity control can cause this. Unlike many other entry-level new pianos, Pearl River soundboards resist this cracking and maintain a beautiful tone throughout the life of the piano.
Better Tuning
Pearl River uses cut-thread tuning pins, which provide more precision and control to the piano technician. This allows for a better and longer-lasting tuning. Likewise, the use of high-quality German piano wire also gives a clear tone and tuning stability. Bass strings are copper-wound by Pearl River, utilising the latest machines regulated to precise tolerances to ensure clear and resonant bass registers.
High Quality Finish
For the finish, ‘static UV application’ provides pianos with a more durable and fade-resistant topcoat. Repeated sanding and buffing by machines in environmentally controlled conditions ensure the highest-quality finish for the entire cabinet.
Sustainability
Ritmüller manufactures all its instruments sustainably, taking care to use natural resources responsibly. They hold International Environmental Certification to ISO 14001 and Management Certification to ISO 9001 – a reflection of their genuine commitment to the natural world.
