History Of Acrosonic Piano
Acrosonic pianos are a series of upright pianos manufactured by Baldwin. They were first built in the year 1936. As a result of its superior sound, it sold very successfully over the following fifty years. Judging by the sales numbers, it appears that it was well-received. By the end of 1973, Baldwin manufactures over one million Acrosonic pianos.
Numerous sources say that the Acrosonic piano has sold more units than any other type of piano in history. So, Baldwin registered “Acrosonic” as a trademark with the US Patent Office.
Unfortunately, after Baldwin’s bankruptcy in 1984, the majority of this particular piano brand’s models are no longer produced. Two models with the ‘Acrosonic’ brand are being made and sold today after being acquired by the Gibson Guitar Company in the late 1990s, Gibson Guitar Company started producing two models with the Acrosonic brand and those are still dominating in today’s market.
