I recently tried to sell a piano for my mom. What they are worth and what they will actually sell for vary greatly in today's piano market. There is basically no market...no one wants a piano :(

That 15k one sounds out of tune on a few keys. Is that just me?

*Can you hear the difference between an upright, baby, parlor, and concert grand piano?

Not entirely a fair comparison. These pianos are designed to have different timbre. Its why the upright is tinny and the concert grand is loud/full sounding. Yes, the size of the piano is a major part of the cost, but there are very expensive varieties of each. For instance, there are 100k baby grands that would have been a fairer comparison to the second piano.

In real life? Yes, absolutely. It's harder through a video due to both the recording device and YouTube's compression.

Only the first one sounds a little tinny. I couldn't really see a difference with the others.

What song is he playing? I recognize it from somewhere but I can't put my finger on it. It sounds like it was in/from a movie, or a TV show maybe?

Yeah but what's the point in spending all that money on some of these pianos? They all only play the same song!

"Let's do an audio comparison using a field recorder"...
