This Steinway: Ready to Design

Get to Know This 1899 Steinway Grand C

This remarkable 1899 Steinway Model C is ready for restoration. Steinway no longer makes the model C in New York and they also no longer create Victorian which truly makes this piano a unique instrument. This piano will be receiving a brand new action, soundboard and finish so once finished, it will both look and sound like a brand new Steinway. See below for the full list of work our expert craftsmen will be completing before shipment and contact us today for more information about how you can own this beautiful piece of history! 

Compare to a 2025 Steinway Model B in Ebony: $142,900 (traditional case)

Our pianos come with our "Peace of Mind Guarantee" - which is a 30 day money back guarantee, lifetime trade in option, free delivery, and a 5-20 year warranty.

“Doing business with Lindeblad Piano Restoration was a real pleasure. I got to play on multiple instruments and Todd answered all the questions I had. He wasn't pushy at all and gave me tons of time to play on 5-6 different pianos. Finally I decided to buy a Steinway C model and I've been happy with the instrument ever since.”

Joseph Joubert, Concert Pianist

"I went to the factory. I saw the work they do. My Steinway D was a complete rebuild, and it's just incredible. Incredible, great, amazing!"

Cleveland Institute of Music
Cleveland, OH · Eight Steinways

"You were responsive. You listened to what our needs were. You've been extraordinarily generous, and in the end, you delivered the pianos that we so desperately needed."

Yiran Wang, Studied at Cornell & Juilliard
Scarsdale, NY · 1974 Steinway D

"Buying a rebuilt Steinway is a unique way of owning a Steinway because these pianos have their own history — and it's one of the most affordable ways to get a Steinway."

Wolfeboro Concert Hall
Wolfeboro, NH · 1919 Steinway D

"The reality was that all the pianists felt, like I did, that this piano had a lot more depth and was actually far superior to the brand-new piano."

Susan Merdinger, Concert Pianist & Steinway Artist
Highland Park, IL · 1997 Steinway B

"I'm probably a difficult client because I'm a Steinway artist. You offered a guarantee that if I didn't like the piano, you'd take it back. There was no risk in making this purchase."

Kathy Driscoll, Professor of Music
Miami, FL · 1963 Steinway B

"My experience with them has been just phenomenal — to come up with a piano that is literally the instrument that I've always dreamed of."

Grant Harvey, Attorney
Houston, TX · 1916 Steinway A3

"Buying this piano from Lindeblad has been fantastic. At every step of the way, just great customer service. That's what separates a fantastic business from a mediocre one."

Kent Turner, Retired Navy Pilot
Port Townsend, WA · 1906 Steinway O

"I knew it would be good, I didn't know it would be this good. I just went up a step in my life. My happiness is what I live for, and this is part of it."
