As the Piano Man of Colorado, I’ve flipped many pianos and didn’t know anything about Cable pianos until I’ve acquired a few.  This sounds magnificent and plays like I need it to.  It’s my favorite in-house Grand piano at this moment.  It’s been painted along the way to give it a FAUX look and I personally stripped off the old chipped keytops and refreshed them with a new set of pseudo ivory.  It has a cool matching bench.

The Cable Piano Company of Chicago was one of the largest and most successful piano manufacturers in American history. The company was established in 1880 by H.D. Cable, who had originally been with the Western Cottage Organ Company (later changed to Chicago Cottage Organ Company).
In 1890, Cable consolidated with the Conover Brothers, as well as his two brothers Fayette S. Cable and Hobart M. Cable (although Fayette S. Cable and Hobart M. Cable continued to build pianos under their own names). Shortly thereafter, the firm acquired The Schiller Piano Company, using Schiller instruments as their “top of the line” models.
The Cable Piano Company was widely celebrated as a maker of fine instruments, and they were a major contributor to the American piano industry at large. Cable built a number of brand names including KingsburyWellington, Schiller, Conover, Palmetto, DeKoven, “Euphona” player pianos, and others. Today, Cable made pianos are among some of the finest antique pianos we see come through our shop and they are well worth restoration.
