Bösendorfer Piano Prices

Bösendorfer pianos are among the most expensive in the world, hand-built in small numbers in Vienna. Here is a realistic guide.

New prices

A new Bösendorfer grand starts high and climbs steeply. Even the smallest home grands are broadly in Steinway territory or above, and the concert models and the Imperial run well into six figures. Bösendorfer, like Steinway, tends to quote on request rather than publish a price list.

Used prices

On the used market Bösendorfers hold their value strongly and remain expensive, though a good older one can cost a good deal less than new. As always, condition, any rebuild history and the parts used matter more than age. See our buying guide.

The honest alternative

If a Bösendorfer is beyond the budget, a reconditioned Yamaha grand from Japan, and Yamaha now owns Bösendorfer, gives you a fine instrument for a small fraction of the price. That is our speciality, and we are happy to let you compare.
