The experience of Schimmel, as the inventor of the so-called 'small piano', benefits this model in particular. The felt manufacture is undertaken according to a traditional process which is more time-consuming than modern industrial felt manufacture, but is the sole method to ensure delivery of premium-quality felt for our instruments. Like all Fridolin pianos, the F 116 model is based on a long proven original Schimmel construction. This requires time, patience and a real empathy for the craft.

The density and weight of the felt, its tension and simultaneous flexibility, the type of wool utilised and how this wool is processed, the correct way of cutting the felt and the way in which it is moulded these aspects are all vital to ensure that our hammerheads transfer the energy of the player's touch to the resonating strings in an optimum manner. Schimmel grand and upright pianos are handcrafted according to a tradition of craftsmanship handed down over generations with loving attention to every detail.
