W. Streicher S115 Upright Piano — c.2000, German-Engineered, Exceptional Condition

Discover this beautifully preserved W. Streicher S115 upright piano, factory-dated c.2000 and confirmed by the original internal inspection label. This compact 115cm traditional upright is an outstanding choice for beginner and intermediate pianists, families, and teaching studios seeking genuine value without compromising on tone or reliability.

German-Engineered Design Heritage

Every W. Streicher piano is built to scale designs and structural specifications by Lothar Schell, a respected German piano designer whose “L.S. Design – Germany” mark appears on the cast-iron plate. Schell’s engineering is aimed at delivering a warmer, more balanced tone and stronger tuning stability than typical budget instruments of the era — the kind of design pedigree usually reserved for pricier European brands.

For transparency: the modern W. Streicher name is a separate brand from the historic 19th-century Viennese Streicher dynasty founded by Johann Andreas and continued by Johann Baptist Streicher, favoured by Johannes Brahms. This piano carries no direct lineage to that firm, but benefits from genuine German scale design through Schell’s work.

This model shares its construction with the well-regarded Steinmayer S115, built in one of the world’s largest piano factories — a family of pianos with a strong reputation in the entry-level and intermediate market for dependable, long-lasting performance.

Exceptional, Near-Perfect Condition

This is not a well-worn practice piano. It presents in near-perfect condition with no observable wear:

– Pristine high-gloss cabinet finish — no fading, scratches, or chips
– Tight key bushings and minimal hammer felt grooving, indicating light use
– Stable soundboard, bridge, and pinblock, holding tuning firmly
– Smooth, responsive action throughout the full 88-key range

Key Features

– Factory-checked and dated c.2000, confirmed by original internal inspection label
– Sturdy, well-reviewed action and construction
