~ Classenti Digital Pianos. What's All The Fuss About?...

Designed and engineered by Germans... French and German parts... Japanese sound technology...

The Classenti digital pianos have an EXCELLENT sound and are so realistic to an upright piano. The key touch is slightly heavier than most digital pianos - this is what players have been craving for! The heavier keys are also great news for beginners (they'll be able to strengthen their fingers, so it will be much easier to transfer to a real piano later on). Read more.

Check out the models here: CDP1, CDP2, CDP3, GR1

I personally recommend Classenti. If you'd like to find out more then drop me an email: grahamhowardukpianos.co.uk, or call 020 8367 2080.

Kemble - The only upright pianos that are built in England. Their factory in Milton Keynes, UK produces around 30 pianos per day. A lot of these pianos are shipped around the world.
Kawai - Reasonably priced uprights but lacking in quality of sound when you compare with Yamaha or Kemble.
Bohemia - Great sounding European piano. The Bohemia upright piano factory in Jihlava, Czech Republic has been making pianos since the late 19th Century.

Upright pianos are also commonly called vertical or traditional pianos. Old or antique uprights are straight strung and over damped, sometimes they have a wooden frame. Modern uprights are overstrung, under damped and have a cast iron piano frame. See all upright pianos. See all upright pianos.

Most popular question of the month

Thanks a million Howard. Kudos to all your effort and your website. I want to buy a piano asap, but I am a bit apprehensive of buying a second-hand one. Are there any pitfalls? For example, I don't like buying 2nd hand computer parts as you never know the usage hours, but i never tried a piano second-hand. What is your opinion on this? New or second hand?

Thanks, Catalin

If you're buying an upright piano then any well known brand name that's less than 30 years old, should be fine. Anything older than that, or not so well known should
be checked out by a qualified piano tuner/technician.

Digital pianos, in my opinion, should only be purchased new.

I've seen far too many second-hand digital pianos that are in need of extensive and VERY costly repair.
