The Cristofori G53L 5’3″ baby grand is one size larger than the smallest and is designed for those seeking a bigger sound and more responsive touch. It still fits most smaller spaces, but sounds better with its wide-tail design that allows for a bigger soundboard and longer strings than most other pianos of this size. The duplex scale adds to the instrument’s musicality.
Cristofori G53L Baby Grand Piano
