HG150-SE
Since its founding in 1986, Hailun Piano Company has grown into one of Asia's top piano manufacturers through its tireless dedication to quality and innovation. At Hailun, every step from design to production is overseen by a team of international experts, which include the renowned piano designer George F. Emerson (Baldwin Piano Company) and quality control expert Rolf Ibach (Rud. Ibach Sohn, Germany). The 400,000 sq ft Hailun piano factory is one of the most technologically advanced in the world. Their extensive use of advanced 5-axis CNC equipment allow for unprecedented levels of precision and consistency in production. The materials used in Hailun pianos are sourced from Europe, North America, & Asia and are equal or superior in quality to those found in pianos many times their price. Hailun's unique hybrid of old-world design and non-compromising materials with the advantages of modern production techniques allow them to create world-class pianos at affordable price points that are simply impossible for 90% of piano manufacturers to match.
Hailun HG150 SE - Classic Series Baby Grand
The 5 foot HG150 SE is the smallest model in Hailun’s award-winning line of grand pianos. It is for many the most “shocking” baby grand piano on the market today. For an entry-price grand, the HG-150 SE is packed with premium materials and features that surpass many larger and more expensive instruments. The innovative wide tail design allows for an unprecedented level of depth and power from a piano of this size. It also features a fully functioning Sostenuto Pedal - a rarity in small grands. The Hailun HG150 SE is currently the best option for students, teachers, and those looking to save on space.
Wide Tail Design
This refers to the rim and cabinet being partially widend in shape towards the rear of the piano to accommodate a larger soundboard and to allow the placement of the bass bridge in a more acoustically flexible area. This enables the HG150 SE to have a rich and full bass more akin to a large grand. This is where the majority of baby grand pianos fall short but where the Hailun HG150 SE stands out!
Duplex Scale
In normal pianos the non-speaking length of strings behind the bridge are muted with felt to avoid unwanted resonances, Duplex Scale on the other hand acts like a secondary bridge and makes them ring out at a complimenting pitch. This premium feature adds both richness and sparkle to the tenor/ treble voices. Duplex Scale is normally only found on very high-end pianos - but it comes standard on all Hailun Classic and Professional Series grands!
Action
The Hailun HG150 SE is equipped with Hailun's standard action made of European hornbeam. European hornbeam is famous for its density and toughness, in fact, it is the hardest wood found in Europe. Hailun's designers have engineered the touch to be highly responsive and fluid throughout the entire keyboard. This allows for a wide range of dynamics and musical expression.
Keyboard
The Hailun HG150 SE features natural keys made of spruce with durable polymer synthetic keytops. An interesting feature is the genuine Ebony wood sharps which have a naturally non-slip texture.
Soundboard
The Hailun HG150 SE features a premium soundboard made of Mountain Spruce that has been carefully cut, dried, and aged. Mountain spruce is highly sought after for its acoustic properties and tight grain pattern - a direct result of the harsh climate conditions in which it grows. Revered piano makers from Schimmel to C. Bechstein have choosen this prized wood for their soundboards.
Bridges
To ensure maximum sound transference, precision-notched solid maple is used for both the bass and treble bridges. The bass bridge is cantilevered to maximize string speaking length and to place the contact point on a more acoustically flexible area of the soundboard for increased resonance.
Premium Hammers
The Hailun HG150 SE features Premium German FFW™ felt hammers. German felt is pressed without heat to preserve the natural structure and elasticity of the wool for a richer tone and increased durability.
Strings
The Hailun HG150 SE uses Röslau steel strings from Germany. Röslau strings have an excellent reputation for quality, durability, and longevity. They are found on some of the world's finest pianos.
Agraffes
Solid brass agraffes are used to regulate the speaking length and angle of the strings. Agraffes allow for greater precision and cleaner string termination.
Pinblock
The Hailun HG150 SE features a 18-layer pinblock made of hardwood maple. These many layers of rigid hardwood enhance the grip on the tuning pins for increased tuning stability
Wet Sand Cast Plate
The cast iron plate (also known as the frame or harp) of a piano must withstand approx. 40,000 lbs of tension from the strings. As such it must be exceptionally dense and strong. The plate of the Hailun HG150 SE is made in the traditional slow wet-sand-cast method. This takes more time and resources than a standard mass-produced plate but the results are significantly denser and more durable. This same method is used by Steinway, Bosendorfer, and other luxury piano makers.
Rim/Construction
The rim is a highly important structural part of the piano that also affects the tone. It supports the entire soundboard/frame assembly and reflects sound waves back into the center of the piano. As such it must be both dense and thick to function as intended. Many low-end Asian pianos have rims that are made too thin or with unsuitable woods resulting in energy loss and poor sustain. On the other hand all Hailun grand pianos including the HG150 SE feature hardwood maple (inner and outer) rims that are 25% thicker than comparable Japanese pianos - for greater durability, longevity, and tonal quality. The back frame braces are made of extra thick hardwood beams arranged in a fan pattern to resist twisting and warping.
