Pianos by Fandrich & Sons

Home of the one and only Fandrich Vertical Action that plays like a grand.

We would be delighted to have you come visit our factory direct workshop and brand new studio.

We're forty-five miles north of our old store front in Lake City. The last twenty-five of those miles are traffic free and you travel through the still rural and picturesque Stillaguamish River Valley.

We love to have people stop by and play our pianos. Everyone who works here is actively involved in building, engineering, or rebuilding pianos. We dislike pressure sales tactics, and depend on our pianos to sell themselves.

"Leather...why do I think of a thick piece of rich brown leather when I play our Fandrich piano? Something about sinking into a chord, reaching the firm bottom of the keys, and feeling there's still...something THERE, some deeper resource of sound, some musical dimension I can still push into. We purchased our brushed mahoghany 6'1" piano over a year ago, and we've had it tuned several times. And now the strings have stretched, and it's settled in, and it's a wonder. You get the glistening sound with high scale runs, the clarity of the middle range, and the sense of falling off something when you hit big bass octaves. I haven't the exquisite ear that can tell a Baldwin from a Steinway, and those two from half a dozen other brands. I can only say that for the money, our piano can't be beat: in looks and sound, it projects itself like an instrument that is tens of thousands of dollars more expensive. Some friends of ours bought an elegant six and a half foot Steinway; it was grand for a while, but at its best--and it cost twice what ours did--it couldn't match what we've got. So...after a year and a half, no complaints. Much praise to Fandrich & Sons."
