Actually, I am not sure. I remember that a few years ago, when I was on Carvin's mailing list, their catalog was boasting that all of their products were made in the USA. However, things may have changed since then.

A while back I was shopping for a grand piano, and in the course of my research found that these days most manufacturers build their pianos (and many other instruments) in China. This includes many well-known European and Japanese makers, such as Yamaha and Kawai. In fact Steinway is one of a very few manufacturers who builds their pianos outside of China (in the US). In addition to a very hefty price tag, many dealers also reported that they required a lot of maintenance - up to 8 hours of tuning and adjustment before they were ready to go on a shop floor, which made those dealers very unhappy. I believe things have improved since then, but I certainly agree that "made in China" is not synonymous with "poor quality".
