RUD-IBACH-SOHN

[H. Emmerson Meyers]

I hear they are even better then Faziolis.

How good are this brand of piano? What are price range for a new one?

Greetings,
Ibach has the claim of being the world's oldest manufacturer of pianos and
although smaller than Steinway, Bechstein or Bluethner, it is one of the
finest in Germany. During the 90's, the Korean Daewoo corp. owned a 35%
interest in Ibach, and some of the pianos sold under the name Ibach

(K-Line)

were manufactured in Korea. This "cooperation" has been terminated so that
all Ibach-brand pianos are presently produced in Germany.

The prices range from Euro 6K for a 114 cm Korean-made upright to Euro 49K
for a 240 cm german-made concert grand.
Note that the K-Line (Korean) upright is only 2/3 the price of the
german-made Ibach of the same size.

I have an Rud Ibach Sohn birdcage upright piano, dating according to family lore, from 1907. It is in good playable condition. Does anyone have an idea what this piano would be worth? Thanks.
