Built to technical specifications that allow the strings to resonate at their optimum capacity, the Model 6 features a well balanced, precise action providing ultimate control of its vibrant and colourful tonal character. The Golden Tone for your living room, library or small performance space in a delightfully versatile instrument.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAliquot Patent\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the upper treble section, each note is provided with an additional aliquot string positioned slightly above the speaking strings and not directly struck by the hammer. These strings vibrate sympathetically with the played note, enriching the tone with additional resonance and harmonic colour — a characteristic feature of Blüthner grand pianos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSoundboard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe soundboard is crafted from carefully selected spruce and crowned to maintain balanced tension across the instrument. Its construction contributes significantly to the warm, singing tonal character associated with Blüthner pianos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInner Rim and Cross Beams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inner rim and structural bracing are designed to withstand the considerable tension exerted by the strings. Laminated cross beams of hardwood and pine provide rigidity and long-term structural stability while helping minimise movement caused by changes in humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBridge and Pin Block\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bridges are positioned to efficiently transfer string vibrations to the soundboard and are traditionally constructed from European maple. The multi-laminated pin block securely holds the tuning pins, contributing to tuning stability and durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIron Frame\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cast iron frame is engineered to support the full string tension of the instrument while maintaining structural integrity and tonal consistency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKeyboard and Action\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-desc js_product-desc-fade\"\u003eThe action is mounted on a solid wooden framework and consists of thousands of finely regulated components working together to provide responsive touch and dynamic control.
