Ritmuller. GH188R

This is a 6'2" piano by Ritmuller, owned by Pearl River, which is a Chinese brand. It feels pretty good, fast action and warm. Larry Fine talks about this piano in his piano buys guide (pianobuyer.com) and is rated the best among the Chinese brands. This piano can be found at Piano and Keyboard on East Beaver Creek in Richmond Hill.

This piano line is brand new and just debuted in 2009 as a higher end piano for the Pearl River company. This particular piano retails for about 17G's.

I like how this piano felt. Responsive and able to play p and f without problems. It's tone is a tad on the brighter side, but still better than the Pramberger which is still my least favourite piano that I've played so far. The keys itself feel sturdy, and I've been told it has a renner action. I think almost every piano has been installed with Renner that I'm beginning to wonder if it's even necessary to write or note this fact.

The last chinese piano that I played was the young chang and compared to it, the Reitmuller far surpasses it's tone and features just by sound and touch alone.

I do like this piano, but I don't feel that it sings to me much the way a yamaha C3 does or the Kawai RX-2.

I'll be going back to take some videos in the store to check it out.
