SHADD Pianos is based out of Washington, DC and was created by Warren M. Shadd. As a second generation piano technician and third generation musician, Warren founded SHADD Pianos in 2003. He set out to create the best piano in the world being that he is a perfectionist.

By some standards, Warren has definitely achieved his goal. Prices range from the $22,000 Upright all the way up to the $185,000 Concert Grand. If you want to try it out before making the commitment, SHADD also rents and ships its pianos for special events.
