Young Chang PE-118 SE 47" Upright Piano

This Young Chang PE-118 Pramberger Signature Series upright piano is a rare and sought-after studio model, produced during a limited run around 2005 using some of the finest materials available in piano manufacturing at the time.

Designed alongside Joseph Pramberger, a former Steinway engineer, this piano features a solid quarter-sawn Sitka spruce soundboard with asymmetrical rib crowning and tapering for enhanced resonance and longevity, a vacuum-processed cast iron plate, and Pramberger’s Platinum Touch Action for refined control and responsiveness typically found in high-end instruments.

This piano had a single owner and served most of its life in a studio setting, receiving great care and maintenance. It’s in excellent condition and represents an incredible opportunity to own a performance-grade upright at an accessible price.
