Second-Hand Pianos

Absolutely!

Buying a second-hand piano comes with a wealth of benefits, such as the opportunity to upgrade more frequently and the ability to access more affordable instruments.

Because of this, opting for a used one is a cost-effective way for customers to purchase valuable pianos with the same high quality and condition for a fraction of the price.

The cost of a pre-owned piano can vary depending on the make, model, and condition of the instrument.

However, you can often expect to pay 40-60% less than first-hand, without compromising on luxury, character, and quality.

Plus, your second-hand piano will depreciate more slowly than a brand new model, which is perfect if you plan to sell your piano in the future.

It’s often beneficial to also check the following components:

• Tuning pins (look out for rust)
• Soundboard (keeping an eye out for any significant cracks)
• Hammers
• Keys (ensure that they’re not sticking)
• Pedals (make sure they’re operating smoothly)
