This page contains a huge list of piano makers and manufacturers. There is also a huge number of piano brand names. This listing contains hundreds of pianos in it's long history of manufacturing. Many piano company names on this list are no longer used and the makers in some cases have been out of business for years.

Many names are owned by various existing piano companies that are not currently (2012) using some of them on their instruments. It's possible that in the future some will be used again. Most likely though at least 75% or more of these names will never be seen again on a piano. And keep in mind that while this list is quite long it still does not contain all piano brands that have been made since the history of the piano began around 1700.

We have also made an effort to avoid stencil piano names on this list. A stencil piano is one made by various piano makers for companies or individuals who place or stencil their name on the front of the piano. Sometimes these names were misspellings of famous companies with the intentions of capitalizing on the famous name. Some piano dealers were that devious(and maybe some still are).

One example of an actual stencil is Steinvey, which looks almost like Steinway. Most of these bogus attempts to rip off the actual makers name happened in the early part of the twentieth century. Nowadays there are enough trade name laws that make it very difficult to get away with this. And during the first 20 years of the 1900's well known makers like Baldwin and Steinway tried to get the government to pass a law to stop this disturbing practice. And force the makers to put their name on their pianos. Sadly their efforts failed.

It seems that the companies building the stencil pianos refused to place their names anywhere on the instruments. Inside or out. One reason being that these pianos were usually much lower quality, and who wants their name on junk? As for the people using a stencil name, they were quite often very deceitful. So it makes sense that they would order cheaply built instruments.
Now of course, a few dealers were not using this practice, and were just using their name on the pianos in order to advertise their company.

Although, quality piano makers like Steinway and Baldwin also probably hated seeing all those cheap bad pianos being pawned off on the public. But high quality means a higher price tag. Most pianos then and now are sold to average income families. Which means some quality will suffer.

Thousands of piano manufacturers have come and gone since the beginnings of this magnificent instrument. At present there is probably less than a few hundred makers in the whole world, with China most likely having more piano factories than any other country.
