Remington Pianos are an entry level instrument manufactured by the Pramberger Piano Company and owned by the Samick Music Corporation, the largest piano company in the world. Remington offers an excellent value at a low starting price of about $6,000 for grands.

The Remington Piano represents over 300 years of accumulated piano technology. As a member of the family of one of the world's largest makers of fine musical instruments, the Remington Piano has the benefit of tremendous economies of scale. Remington uses the finest tone woods for soundboards and ribs as well as a traditional sand cast plate for the purest tone and strength. The Pratt-Reed Standard Action and keyboard will give a lifetime of smooth, responsive touch and tone.

There are three basic ingredients in making a fine piano: superior craftsmanship, high quality materials and superior design. If you look closely at the fit and finish of the workmanship you can quickly see superior piano building craftsmanship in the Remington. Notice the careful selection of high grade materials such as brass fittings where the competition uses plastic and heavier construction of the inner and outer rims. This is, after all, a fine piano; a piano you and your family may own for generations. A well-maintained piano is a fine investment. A regularly played piano is even more valuable, it adds joy to special occasions and comfort throughout life.
