Baldwin 442 Acrosonic Mahogany

Baldwin Acrosonic 342 – Classic Style, Signature Baldwin Tone

The Baldwin Acrosonic 342 brings timeless design and rich tone into a compact 43½" console format, making it an ideal choice for home pianists, educators, and casual players who appreciate authentic Baldwin craftsmanship in a smaller package.

Despite its approachable size, the Acrosonic 342 delivers bold, full-bodied tone thanks to a spruce soundboard with an impressive 1,866 sq. in. area and a 44 3/32" speaking length. Hard maple and beech bridges, 100% virgin wool hammers, and Roslau music wire come together to produce clear highs, warm mids, and tight bass response.

Playability is effortless and satisfying, with an action crafted from European-imported hornbeam and individually weighted spruce keys for balanced touch. With a quiet play mute rail, it’s great for late-night practice, and its fold-down fallboard and traditional design elements reflect Baldwin’s enduring legacy in upright piano excellence.
