Philip and Marie.....Lee-on-the-Solent

From the outset and throughout Graham has been more that helpful, providing a first rate service that quickly delivered our first piano.
Initially knowing very little of buying a piano, we felt that during our initial enquiry Graham was particularly honest and impartial with his advice; more so than any other professional that we had spoken to. Although he had nothing in stock that suited us at the time we left him our details. He was then very proactive in finding us the perfect piano, tailored for our needs, and arranged a relatively quick delivery - just in time for Christmas. We are extremely delighted with it, both as an instrument and a lovely piece of furniture. I would strongly recommend The Bedhampton Piano Shop to anyone who is looking for a friendly, honest and professional service......and, more importantly, the right piano!


Have a great holiday - I will give you a call in the New Year to talk tuning.

Charles and Katherine... rowlands castle

My wife and I had been looking for a piano for some two years, and looked at instruments from the sublime to the ridiculous, yet we were struggling to find something that satisfied my wife’s grade 7 skills and my need for a good value (in the truest sense of the term).
Graham and his staff were patient, attentive and extremely helpful in helping us find the perfect piano for our needs. When a piano that played beautifully but needed refinishing came in, Graham contacted us, asked what finish to the case we would like and delivered our perfect piano to our requirements.

We later found a small problem in the finish of the panelling (which no-one was sure how it happened and out of warranty!), fortunately Graham and his team took the problem parts, and re-finished them to a fantastic standard, no fuss and no problems.

If you are looking for personal service, knowledgeable staff and fantastic aftersales then we are happy to recommend Bedhampton Piano’s for all, no matter of budget.

I was very grateful for your advice and for e-mailing the details of my piano to a possible buyer. Thank you !

How long does it take to restore a piano

It never ceases to amaze me how long it takes to rebuild piano,with almost 12,000 parts to check over the task can be a daunting one to the Amateur.
Here at Bedhampton Pianoshop it is part of our daily work.
It still takes hours of labour to get to the end result,but when you get to the end it is very satisfying to see the works of your labour .a rebuilt piano upright or grand that will last many years to come & be a joy to look at.

YOLANDA HAVANT

Hi Graham,

I would like to thank you for helping me sell my Bechstein piano, which was bought from you ten years ago. It has been a pleasure to play but due to a house move, I had to sell it. Your delivery staff came to pick this up at the time stated and you kept me updated on who was interested in the piano. After waiting only a month or so, I received contact from you stating that the piano had been sold. I also received the cheque very soon thereafter, so I would like the opportunity to say thank you very much for finding a buyer for the piano.

Many thanks, Yolanda

Hi, the Bechstein piano has arrived safely with your excellent delivery people. It is fabulous, fits perfectly and is exactly as described. It plays beautifully and the children are all very excited. We will be contacting the piano tuner shortly to get it all perfect following the move.

Many thanks for your excellent service all round.

I will scan in a photo and email to you.

All the best

Richard

SARA Portsmouth

Hi Graham,

Just wanted to say that I'm so happy with the Challen upright piano that I recently purchased from you. It looks and sounds lovely, and I'm really pleased that I had it repolished, as despite being around 80 years old it now looks brand new. This was a really big purchase for me, so thank you for making it an enjoyable experience, with plenty of information before I brought the piano, and then prompt service when it required some adjustments after delivery.

The delivery was also fantastic - it was a tight squeeze though my narrow doors but the guys made it look easy!

Thanks again, I will definitely be recommending you to anyone looking for a piano

Sara,

Copnor

Dear Graham,

It is now about 18 months since our beautiful early 1900's 5'8'' Broadwood grand arrived and its extensive restoration by you and your team, so its time for an update. We enjoy it so much and its beautiful, warm tone plus the rich bass. Our daughter who plays it mostly has learnt such touch and expression in her playing, she may never leave home ….. without it. Gerry has also been excellent in tuning and adjustments as the new strings have settled in. How we are glad we didn't opt for a modern upright, making the player look at the wall even if it might have saved a little £. Thank you again for your excellent advice before and help since delivery.

Do use this on your website as you wish.

Best regards

Richard & Caroline

Your after sales service is excellent and nothing is too much trouble.
I strongly recommened anyone to your shop and you should feel very proud of what you have acheived in your excellent overall service.

LYNNE............. WATERLOOVILLE

Hello Graham

This is just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the Rogers piano that I bought from you a couple of weeks ago. It is a treat to play and I am really thrilled with it.

Can I just say a 'thank you' to you and your staff at Bedhampton. As you know, I haven't been playing very long and I badly needed advice and information about the styles and workings of the piano. I was so grateful that you took the time to explain things to me.

Thank you again to you and your staff. When I buy another piano I will certainly come back to you (but, unfortunately, I can't see that happening for a good few years now) .

Kind regards

Lynne (Smith)

Dear Graham,

I am writing to thank you & your team so very much for my wonderful Bluthner Upright Piano. As you know I have taken a long time deciding which piano to get & the Bluthner has proved to me that it was well worth the wait! The whole experience of following the Bluthner's restoration, both on-line & in your workshop, has been fascinating & enlightening....I have learned so much! Your attention to detail & overall craftsmanship has been a privilege to witness & I have been so grateful to you all for your care & understanding of my personal wishes with regards to the regulating & tone of the piano. The Bluthner is not only a beautiful instrument to play, but it also looks fabulous after all the work you put into polishing up the flame mahogany case.

Having had the Bluthner at home now for over a month, I would also like to thank you for your continued care & dedication to the piano as it 'settles down' following it's restoration.

In short, thankyou to you & your team for making these past few weeks so pleasurable & stress free...even the actual arrival of the piano took place with professional ease & punctuality!

I look forward to working with you again in the future, & I will certainly be referring you to my friends & colleagues...infact, I already have!

With grateful thanks,

Paula Forbes-Wilcockson
