Buying and Selling Steinway Pianos for over 30 Years

Dear Jeff,

I just wanted to write to let you know how number 435199 is settling in at the Under School!

We're delighted with it already and I am sure that it will become even more enjoyable to play and to hear, the more it is played.

Thank you so much for the excellent work you have done to make this such a wonderful instrument again.

With very best wishes,

Jeremy Walker, Director of Music, Westminster Under School

Jeffrey Shackell has been buying and selling Steinway Pianos for over 30 years.

His first Steinway Grand, purchased for £100 was delivered from north London to Witney for just £10! Prices may have changed since then but Jeffrey is as enthusiastic today about Steinway as he was then.

Shackell Pianos Ltd has now established its self as a completely independent specialist dealer in the UK dealing with sales of pre-owned Steinway pianos, service work, restoration, maintenance and concert piano hire.

Vintage and present day instruments are carefully selected for sale. Pianos that are overhauled are done so using genuine Steinway replacement parts. Careful consideration of the use of certain parts that are sympathetic to the restoration in hand is one of the hallmarks of respect that Shackell Pianos Ltd have for the 'golden era' of Steinway production. In certain cases maintaining the original patina of an older Steinway that has survived well is paramount to initial discussions with potential new owners.

Advice on buying and selling Steinway or other quality pianos is freely given, please call or email.
