For Sale: Fazer Compact Upright – Satin Teak
The Ultimate Acoustic Secret: Premium Nordic Engineering
We are delighted to introduce this Fazer compact upright piano, which has just arrived in our showroom. If you are searching for a high-quality acoustic piano that delivers a genuine European touch and tone without the premium price tag, this Finnish-built masterpiece represents one of the smartest value-for-money investments on the secondhand market today.
Fazer pianos were engineered in Finland to withstand the extreme, unforgiving Nordic climate. Built using incredibly dense, slow-grown Finnish timbers and fitted with a premium German-designed Schwander action, this piano offers a level of mechanical precision, tuning stability, and structural durability that easily rivals the industry's household names. You can read more about them in our Fazer blog article.
Authentic Condition & Showroom Preparation
This Fazer upright has just arrived with us as a high-quality part-exchange from a local musical home, where it was thoroughly loved and well-maintained.
As with all new arrivals, our in-house technical team has already completed a rigorous inspection and Showroom Preparation to ensure it plays beautifully from day one:
-
Action Regulation: The high-grade Schwander action has been meticulously cleaned, lubricated, and regulated to ensure an ultra-smooth, fast, and highly predictable touch across all 88 keys.
-
Cabinet Conditioning: The unique Satin Teak cabinet has been gently cleaned and treated to preserve the natural beauty and warm grain of the Scandinavian wood veneer.
-
Pitch & Voice: The piano has been pulled to concert pitch (A440Hz) and voiced to showcase its stunning, warm, and distinctly European "singing" tonal profile.
Design & Aesthetics: Mid-Century Scandinavian Minimalism
While many modern pianos adhere to the standard high-gloss black "concert" look, Fazer pianos are celebrated for their distinctive, retro-modern aesthetic. Influenced heavily by mid-century modern Scandinavian design, this piano features a sleek, compact, "continental" legless cabinet.
The soft, matte Satin Teak finish highlights beautiful architectural lines and natural wood textures. This makes it an exceptional visual match for homes featuring vintage G-Plan furniture, wooden flooring, or contemporary minimalist spaces that prioritise organic materials. Because it eschews traditional bulky cabinet styling, it slips effortlessly into tight alcoves or smaller rooms without overwhelming the space visually.
Why This Fazer Represents Exceptional Value
Because Fazer is often a "hidden gem" brand overlooked by buyers purely searching for a black cabinet, these instruments can be acquired for a fraction of the cost of a secondhand Yamaha or Kawai. However, musically and mechanically, there is zero compromise.
By utilising a highly resilient laminated acoustic soundboard, this Fazer is virtually immune to the cracking and structural drying out caused by modern home central heating. It provides an advancing student or intermediate player with a rock-solid, low-maintenance acoustic foundation that will last for decades to come.
