Refinishing the Cabinet

The cabinet houses all internal components of a piano, and enables the vibrations of the soundboard to resonate richly. Cabinets are constructed from a number of woods: African Mahogany, Hard Rock Maple, and Walnut are popular choices. A cabinet's color is the most noticeable feature of a piano. Each cabinet is hand-rubbed with a colored stain to bring out the patterning of the wood's grain. Polish (satin or high gloss) and texture (open pore or closed pore) also add a unique dimension to each piano's finish.
