Second hand Goods
Items which have previously been owned and used are sold as second hand by the nature of being pre-owned cosmetic blemishes to the finish and casework should be expected together with reasonable wear to the instrument and mechanical parts. Demonstration models are sold as seen at a reduced price and are not deemed to be brand new. We do not sell second hand goods as yet, on-line as people’s expectations on what to expect for a pre-owned piano can vary. We always recommend visiting the showroom and trying a piano before your decide to purchase. There is no
substitute for playing, seeing or hearing an instrument – no image or photo can ever truly capture the individual sound of a real instrument.

If you are in any doubt whatsoever please contact the showroom prior to booking or ordering. Countrywide Piano Centre ltd always takes great care when moving pianos however due to the very nature of moving heavy musical instruments it is not possible to clean piano trolleys before entering your home nor can our delivery crew remove footwear due to health & safety regulations therefore we cannot accept any responsibility whatsoever for dirty marks on flooring or carpet. It is not possible to guarantee that the transfer of grit or gravel will not adhere to our piano trolleys which might scratch
flooring. Delivery times are always given as a guide AM or PM however, our crew are always happy to give you as much or as little advance notice by phone, on the day, as you wish, just let us know.
Piano Stools / Heat Protection Mats
Prices do not include any accessories unless indicated. Piano stools are available from the showroom and are usually heavily discounted if purchased at the same time as purchasing a piano from the showroom. If you have under floor heating it is VERY IMPORTANT to protect the piano from heat, ideally if possible isolate the heating away from the piano or we sell piano heat protection rugs which will help but are not guaranteed to stop heat damage.
