Grantham Piano Services can offer you a wide range of new, second-hand and refurbished pianos, in many different sizes, shapes, colours and price ranges. In short, we can cater for almost any requirement and budget that you may have.
A piano on its own is not the whole story, you will need something to sit on to play it, somewhere to keep your music and something to put your music on while you are playing it. We can offer you a range of quality accessories to cater for these needs, again in different price ranges to suit your pocket.
Once you have your piano, we can offer you a range of services to support you from tuning through to polishing and refurbishment in case of damage.

Boyd - London - A straight strung, iron framed piano built
in the 1920's. The piano is in a dark solid Oak casework. An ideal piano
for a beginner or those on a tight budget.
Barratt
& Robinson -
An overstrung, iron framed mini upright in a mahogany casework. This is
a six octave piano which looks like a piano when it is open and a sideboard
when it is closed!
Barratt & Robinson Upright - A small modern upright six octave piano dating from the 1960's. In good condition throughout, it has a big sound from a little piano and would suit a child or a small adult.
August Forster Upright - A Superb quality German upright piano built in the 1920's. A real musicians instrument that could do with some restoration. Typical smooth German tone and quality touch.
Barratt & Robinson Upright -
A
modern 1970's upright in a very attractive mahogany satin casework. This
piano is in good condition throughout and would make an ideal improvers
piano.
George Russell Upright - An overstrung, iron framed upright piano in a mahogany casework. This piano has quite diminuative proportions but is in a traditional style casework with nice rounded legs.
Eavestaff Upright - This is an Eavestaff miniroyal, one of the last of the minipianos and in my opinion the best of the range. They have a more piano like tone and a better touch than their predecessors. This one is in a mahogany case.
Bentley Upright - A satin mahogany cased piano from this
well regarded British piano company. This piano was manufactured in 1993
and is in 'as new' condition inside and out.
Forrest and Grant - An immaculate secondhand piano in a high gloss polyester casework. This piano is only five years old and has had next to no usage. Totally as new and a fine choice if you want a gorgeous piano without the price tag....
Hohner Upright - This is a modern upright piano in an open pore mahogany satin casework. It has had very little usage in its lifetime and really is in excellent order throughout. It would make an ideal improvers piano.
Carl Ebel Upright - A mahogany highly polished dark cased piano in superb condition. It has had very little use in its four year lifetime and has a nice rounded tone. These pianos retail at over £3,000 these days, so the price of this for what is essentially a new piano is very attractive.

manufacture, boasting a very nice casework in crown cut mahogany veneers.
This is the traditional (legged) version of the best selling Chinese piano
in the U.K
Bechstein Upright - A beautiful piano in a stunning burr walnut casework currently undergoing major restoration work.

Bentley
Upright - This is the latast generation
instrument from the very popular range of Chinese pianos manufactured
by 'Pearl River'. It is in a traditional casework but is also available
in a modern style
Perzina 129cm - The top of the Perzina upright range.Thanks to its inverse crown and the floating soundboard this piano has a bass that has to be heard to be believed. Easily surpassing the depth of a baby grand piano and larger grands as well, it has the response, touch and tone that merits the title of 'upright grand'.
Kawai GM10 grand - Kawai say; 'Measuring 150cm in length, the GM-10 offers the same attention to detail and quality found in Kawai's larger pianos... in a petite size to fit any room. With it's resonant tone and classic good looks, the GM-10 will be an impressive addition to any home.' We can't argue with that!
Kawai K-2 Upright - This is a really good little piano. Superb responsiveness comes from the new Millenium 3 action which has just the right combination of weight, speed and feel.. The sound from its diminuative proportions are really excellent especially in the crucial middle area. Come and have a try and see why we make such a fuss over these pianos. We also have in stock a special edition satin walnut version of this piano.
Kawai K-3 Upright - This is bigger version of the above piano standing at 121 cms. It has a tone to rival a small grand and the millenium 3 action.Superb!
Kawai K-5 Upright - Getting quite serious now! This piano has lots of power, a superb controllable touch and a beautiful mellow tone that would keep even the most discerning pianists happy for many a year.
Yamaha
G2 Grand - This is a 5ft 8in boudoir grand
piano in an immaculate high gloss black casework. The piano was built
in 1984 and is a U.K. sourced instrument not a Japanese import. Very little
use on the action, this is a musicians instrument that looks and sounds
marvellous.
Yamaha
C3 Grand - A very rare chance to purchase
a U.K. sourced, as new condition, mahogany cased, 6ft 1in boudoir grand
piano. This piano is only five years old and has so little use it might
as well be new, it is in the rarer mahogany finish and the RRP on this
piano is over £25,000.....we wont be charging anywhere near that
so be quick!!
Gebr. Perzina Grand- A 6ft 2in boudoir grand piano in a black bright casework. The specs on this piano are really superb.

We have it in stock so feel free to come and have a play.
Steinway model 'A' Grand-
We are currently restoring this Steinway model 'A' 6ft 2in Boudoir grand piano. Built in 1896 it is undegoing an extensive restoration which has included the replacement of its soundboard and tuning plank. The piano is being restored sympathetically to its age and it is having a traditional hand applied French Polish which will make the most of its fine quality Rosewood casework.
Steinway Grand- The soundboard has been sourced from Austrian tonewoods, and the action is being completely rebuilt including all new felts and baizes. The ivories are original and in superb condition, having had little use through its lifetime.

We
are always asked for advice about which digital piano would be best for
different situations and whether digital pianos are as good as real pianos
( ! ) So we thought it would be best to stock a few so you can make up
your own minds. After much auditioning we were very impressed with the
Kawai range and so we always keep a stock on display. Please contact
us to arrange a demonstration.
Kawai CL25 - The baby of the Kawai range, but only in size ! This piano is really tiny but has a really good touch and tone.
Kawai CL35 - The next one up in the range has a more substantial speaker system and a better keyboard, whilst still retaining the small size of the CL range.
Kawai CN 22 - A new level of performance and value make this instrument one that should be at the top of your audition list. Very popular with those wishing to have a more 'piano' looking instrument in the home
Kawai ES6 - A very versatile instrument shown here with its optional stand. It can be used as a portable stage piano or a piano that can be stored when not in use. Lots of connection facilities including midi and USB for use with a computer for composition/arranging etc. Small top built in loudspeakers are ideal for quiet playing or foldback use.
Kawai CA-71 - This piano uses the advanced hammer action 1V which has a full length wooden key and has real player involvement that is rare in digital pianos, with more functions and cool stuff impossible to list in such a small space. Available in Mahogany, Rosewood and Cherry.
Kawai MP5 - You may wonder why we (as self proclaimed piano nutters) are stocking a stage piano that has no built in speakers....because its brilliant! thats why. It has the best piano sound around plus 255 others, four different assignable zones, masses of connections and a great touch. come and have a go and see what you think.
We can provide a wide range of piano accessories to compliment your instrument and meet your playing requirements. This range includes piano stools, music stands, music cabinets and metronomes. We can supply from a number of carefully selected manufacturers allowing us to meet your requirements be they to match the wood colour of your instrument, or your budget.
