Piano Hire
Jeffrey Shackell has supplied STEINWAY and YAMAHA concert instruments for orchestras, music clubs, concert halls, recording companies and private venues from the south coast to the Lake District.
Jeffrey purchased his first Steinway model 'B' for hire use in 1981, this was followed by purchasing a brand new Steinway model 'B' in 1984 from Steinway Hall, something of a red letter day for him! Further Steinway and Yamaha concert grands were acquired over the years including another brand new Steinway from Steinway Hall in 1995, this time a model 'D' concert grand.
From 1984 concert piano hire has played a leading role in Jeffrey's work schedule and a huge number of concerts have seen a piano supplied by Shackell Pianos Ltd.
Jeffrey Shackell continues to offer first class instruments for concert hire and Steinway and Yamaha grands are kept specifically for concert use. Jeffrey now has the use of the wonderful klavier roller system, the first one in the UK. This allows the moving and transporting of a full concert grand by one man!
Our instruments for hire stock include;
- STEINWAY model 'D' 8' 10" concert grands (two)
- Yamaha C5 6' 7" grand
- Yamaha G3 6' grand
Jeffrey is proud of the following testimonial supplied by Leonard Pearcey, Director, Music at Leisure:
"For fifteen years Shackell Pianos Ltd have been the preferred supplier for our Music at Leisure weekends in all parts of this country. In tendering their prices have been the keenest, the pianos are always in first class condition, delivered and collected at the arranged times with faultless service and tuning. The leading international pianists I book are always delighted with the instrument provided. And Shackell Pianos Ltd really care."
