As the largest upright in the Baldwin line, the B252 offers remarkable tonal depth, projection, and responsiveness, making it an exceptional choice for serious musicians, teachers, churches, and discerning homes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"776\" data-end=\"1072\"\u003eFinished in ebony, the B252 presents a clean, elegant profile that suits both traditional and contemporary interiors. Its beautifully proportioned cabinet gives the instrument a strong yet refined visual presence, allowing it to serve as both a musical centerpiece and a distinguished furnishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1074\" data-end=\"1502\"\u003eWhat sets this model apart is its scale and engineering. The B252 provides approximately the same total soundboard area as a 6 foot 3 inch grand piano, giving it an unusually full and resonant voice for a vertical instrument. Its longer bass string design contributes to a rich, powerful tone more commonly associated with larger grands, while Baldwin’s Full Blow Direct Action supports a highly responsive and expressive touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1504\" data-end=\"1914\"\u003eBuilt with a spruce soundboard and ribs, a precision notched hard rock maple bridge, and European style spruce keys with hardwood reinforcements, the B252 reflects Baldwin’s long-standing commitment to musical integrity and durable craftsmanship. Rounded and polished key details, along with a special key surface coating designed to resist staining and chipping, further support both beauty and long-term use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1916\" data-end=\"2223\"\u003eWe chose the Baldwin B252 for its rare combination of commanding upright performance, classic American piano heritage, and practical versatility. For clients who desire a serious acoustic instrument but do not wish to compromise valuable floor space with a grand, the B252 offers an exceptional alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2225\" data-end=\"2271\"\u003eAvailable April 2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"10btkw6\" data-start=\"2433\" data-end=\"2446\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2448\" data-end=\"2864\"\u003eModel B252 Concert Vertical\u003cbr data-start=\"2475\" data-end=\"2478\"\u003eFinish Ebony\u003cbr data-start=\"2490\" data-end=\"2493\"\u003eCondition New\u003cbr data-start=\"2506\" data-end=\"2509\"\u003eScale Design Concert vertical with grand-like tonal depth\u003cbr data-start=\"2566\" data-end=\"2569\"\u003eSoundboard Solid spruce\u003cbr data-start=\"2592\" data-end=\"2595\"\u003eRibs Spruce\u003cbr data-start=\"2606\" data-end=\"2609\"\u003eBridge Precision notched hard rock maple\u003cbr data-start=\"2649\" data-end=\"2652\"\u003eAction Baldwin Full Blow Direct Action\u003cbr data-start=\"2690\" data-end=\"2693\"\u003eKeys European style spruce keys with hardwood reinforcements\u003cbr data-start=\"2753\" data-end=\"2756\"\u003eTouch Responsive, expressive, and refined\u003cbr data-start=\"2797\" data-end=\"2800\"\u003eBest For Homes, studios, schools, churches, and rehearsal spaces\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"eoc5gq\" data-start=\"2866\" data-end=\"2892\"\u003eWhy We Chose This Model\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2894\" data-end=\"3198\"\u003eThe Baldwin B252 was selected for clients seeking a substantial upright piano with the tonal presence and musical authority often associated with a grand.
