  • Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art
    Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art This piano began life as a brown Recordo. The sound board was re-engineered, as the original ribs tapered so soon that the bass bridges pushed through. The strings were the wrong weight, and were re-scaled using computer technology. Six more wound-strings were added, and the weights of the steel strings were changed. A 14-inch Duo-Art pump, a fan-expression system, and an expression-valve-size Duo-Art stack with a soft-pedal compensation lift were all built for it. The Marquetry on the side of the piano was inspired by the pictures on the Arto-Roll boxes. The fallboard was inspired by a picture on the Rhythmodic roll box. A new bench was built, modeled after the bench originally available, but veneered to go with the rest of the piano.

More specifically, however, it refers to the period when the Baldwin Piano Company owned Gretsch, which was substantially longer—from summer to early The Baldwin era is a much-maligned period in Gretsch history. The term is often used in an unflattering light to denote generally neglectful Baldwin rule that resulted in a decline in quality, unpopular new instruments, corporate upheaval and dwindling sales that ultimately led to Gretsch guitar production being shut down altogether in Gretsch had been a family- run company ever since Friedrich Gretsch founded it in New York in But in the mid s, Tony Bacon: 50 Years of Gretsch Electrics Fred Gretsch Jr. Baldwin, riding high at the time and spurred by its acquisition of U. The sale was completed on July 31, Long successful in building and marketing pianos and organs, Baldwin seemed to assume that its existing production and marketing methods would work equally well for guitars. A few stalwarts hung on, but there was no mistaking a definite decline. For these and other reasons, Baldwin never achieved great success with Gretsch guitars throughout the s. As Tony Bacon: 50 Years of Gretsch Electrics, the unfortunate character of the Baldwin era stands in sharp contrast to the original Gretsch golden age of the s and s.

    130 Years of That Great Gretsch Sound! 1883 Friedrich Gretsch, 27, who emigrated from Germany at 16, opens a small music shop in Brooklyn, N.Y., making banjos, drums and tambourines. 1895 Friedrich Gretsch becomes ill while traveling in Germany and dies at age 39. Fifteen- year-old son, Fred Gretsch, Sr., takes over family business. 1916 Company moves to 10-story building at 60 Broadway in Brooklyn, N.Y. 1918 Fred Gretsch, Sr. develops revolutionary multi-ply drum lamination process resulting in the world’s first “warp free” drum hoop. 1920 Gretsch’s manufacturing facility expands to become the world’s largest music instrument manufacturing factory. 1927 Company introduces historic Gretsch-American drum series, featuring the industry’s first multi-ply drum shell. Gretsch uses its own name on guitars for the first time, rather than just selling to wholesalers. 1935 Broadkaster drum line is introduced. Duke Kramer begins his 70-year career at Gretsch. Known as “Mr. Guitar Man,” Kramer would become pivotal in making Gretsch electric guitars what they are today. 1937 Historic partnership with master drummer and inventor Billy Gladstone begins.

    Baldwin Piano Company - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 1/5/14, 5:24 PM Baldwin Piano Company From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Baldwin Piano Company was once the largest US- Baldwin Piano Company based manufacturer of pianos and other keyboard instruments. It ceased domestic production of pianos in Type Subsidiary December 2008, and is now a subsidiary of the Gibson Guitar Founded 1857 Corporation. [1] Headquarters Nashville, Tennessee, US Number of locations Greenwood, Mississippi Contents Key people Henry Juszkiewicz (CEO) Parent Gibson Guitars 1 History 2 Notable performers 3 General references 4 References 5 External links History The company traces its origins back to 1857, when Dwight Hamilton Baldwin began teaching piano, organ, and violin in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1862, Baldwin started a Decker Brothers piano dealership and, in 1866, hired Lucien Wulsin as a clerk. Wulsin became a partner in the dealership, by then known as D.H. Baldwin & Company, in 1873, and, under his leadership, the Baldwin Company became the largest piano dealer in the Midwestern United States by the 1890s. In 1889–1890, Baldwin vowed to build "the best piano that could be built"[2] and subsequently formed two production companies: Hamilton Organ, which built reed organs, and the Baldwin Piano Company, which made pianos. The company's first piano, an upright, began selling in 1891. The company introduced its first grand piano in 1895. Baldwin died in 1899 and left his estate to fund missionary causes. Wulsin ultimately purchased Baldwin's estate and continued the company's shift from retail to manufacturing. The company won its first major award in 1900, when their model 112 won the Grand Prix at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, the first American manufactured piano to win such an award.
