In my opinion, Baldwins sound absolutely gross, in a way that Young Changs don't, but have more reliable actions than Young Changs. Regarding Young Changs are serviceable but definitely a tier below Yamaha and Kawai, maybe a little below Baldwin, even. That appraisal ($3,300) seems about right. Are Young ChangвЂ™s really considered to be poor quality?ДЄnd we could get a good deal on a better pianoДoes this mean you would play this Young Chang? Either way, if you have $2,500-$3,000 saved that could possibly go towards shipping, I'd probably save another one of this amount and buy a slightly better piano. I still get to play this piano at my parent's house fairly regularly and the difference between this piano and my Kimball are night and day. I'm far from an expert on pianos but I grew up playing on a Young Chang baby grand, 5'-6', around the same vintage as this one from TX. I talked to a local music store while buying some piano books to get their opinion and the woman was pretty down on Young Chang's in general (kept harping about their poor quality), but she quickly segued into showing me some Kohler & Campbell used pianos they had in stock and their financing options.so I don't trust her opinion much.

They are a wealthier family and are very particular about their house, and I trust they are telling the truth as they would probably be embarrassed to have a professional play their piano if it wasn't kept up.ДЄ piano vendor down in TX says this piano is worth about $3,300. They say they have performed regular maintenance and tuning on it because they periodically have a professional come in and play private parties. You can't even tell from the pictures though, it looks to be in great condition. It has been barely played (no one in their entire family plays piano) and I'm told it has some slight sunfading and a small scratch on one of the legs. It is a Young Chang baby grand, 5'-2', bought new in the late 1980s or early 1990s, model G026354. This is a 2,000 mile trip (from TX to WA) which from some research looks to be about $2,500-$3,000 for shipping. I brought up the idea of having us pay to ship it to us instead and we could get a good deal on a better piano. My wife's aunt and uncle are moving out of their house and were planning to donate their piano rather than sell it. There is nothing wrong/broken with it but I would love something better. It's okay - nothing special, but definitely on the lower end of quality. I currently own and regularly play on a ~30 year old baby grand Kimball (4'-8').
