A Family Piano That's Perfect For All Ages And Abilities

"Once the first few notes were played it was confirmed, we knew we had picked a winner, the sound is very impressive"

We are really pleased with our decision to go with the Classenti brand for our purchase of a digital piano. The courier driver you used was careful in unloading the piano. The strong packaging by the supplier helped to ensure the piano arrived in mint condition. The set up was straightforward after following the simple instructions in the manual.

The piano has good build quality, sturdy yet sleek looking with great curved lines and the polished black finish looks great. Once the first few notes were played it was confirmed, we knew we had picked a winner, the sound is very impressive.

The simple layout of the buttons makes them easy to use and the manual explained how to get the different instrumental voices, practice songs etc. My daughter is really enjoying practicing on the piano.

Thanks for the great service Graham & please also thank your team on our behalf

"I was looking for a digital piano with a firm realistic keyboard action and that is exactly what the Classenti has, perfect"

Hi Graham,

My CDP2 arrived safely and we assembled it without trouble. The main feature I was looking for in a digital piano was a
firm realistic keyboard action and that is exactly what the Classenti has, perfect. No unnecessary frills, just a good solid piano with the most important essentials such as good sounds,two track recording, metronome etc. I am amazed at the low price for such a good instrument.

Many thanks.

"It plays beautifully - not at all like and electric piano"

Hi, My classenti piano arrived on the due date. We assembled it that night without the mannual. It plays beautifully - not at all like and electric piano ( I,m such a ludite). I am amazed I can still play after more than 10 years. There's hope for a lot of people!

Freddie 8 is having his first lessons with me and is being taught traditionally. I am teaching Henry 6  with colours and by ear. It really helps the piano has no distracting "bells and whistles". Tilly 3 is singing "Once upon a dream" from Disney's Sleeping Beauty.

Thank you for the electonic mannual. Very environ friendly. Being a bit slow, I had wondered where it was.

The service we have had from you has been excellent, thank you

"I fell in love with this instrument straight away, and ended up taking one home with me"

I had decided to take up piano playing after a gap of many years, having recently semi-retired. This time I had my heart set on a digital piano. Not knowing much about them, I contacted Graham Howard for his advice on what to look for.

After a few friendly emails, and receiving very helpful advice, I decided to drive from Northampton to Enfield to visit the showroom. There, I was shown the Classenti CDP2, and given a short demonstration. I fell in love with this instrument straight away, and ended up taking one home with me. 

It was very easy to assemble, having downloaded the instruction manual from the internet.

Once assembled, this piano makes a wondrous addition to any room, a really beautiful looking, and at the same time very solid, instrument. 

To play it is to be transported into another world, the sounds are so authentic. The extras are an added bonus, with just enough not to get too complicated, for instance 5 instrumental voices, various demo songs to listen to, a metronome, and reverb are my particular favourites. 
    
This has given me the enthusiasm to take lessons again, because the Classenti deserves to be played well, and I hope one day that I will be able to do it the justice that it deserves. It will certainly be fun trying.

"In regards to its sound, build quality etc. You have not let me down. Straight away the default piano sound was authentic and instantly reminded me of the acoustic piano..."

Hi Graham,
 
I received delivery of a Classenti CPD2 in polished black. I
have only had it a few days so still working through the instruction manual! However, first impressions are excellent. It was a bit of leap of faith with the Classenti as I had no opportunity to try one out before I bought it.

However, I relied on your guide book in regards to its sound, build quality etc. You have not let me down. Straight away the default piano sound was authentic and instantly reminded me of the acoustic piano in Sunday School many years ago.

The demo tunes show off the full potential of sounds that can be produced, the sounds are rich and have good presence. I am very pleased with the overall quality and look of the piano.

While it is not endowed with dozens of buttons an dials it has a simple elegance and looks great in the lounge.
 
With thanks

"I would recommend it to anyone about to buy their first piano. My daughter can't stop playing it !"

Hi Graham, just a quick word about the piano I bought from you last month - Classenti Digital Piano CDP2 Dark Rosewood. I must say I am very impressed by it's build quality and sound. Would have had to pay £400+ extra for a similar spec Kawai which I tried in a local shop.

I find the aux-in facility very handy especially since I have a Yamaha synthesiser which I can control with the piano via Midi. The quality of the other limited voices are not as good
as the main piano sound, but we as a family use it as a piano only which is why we bought it in the first place.

Just a small quibble regarding the use of headphones; level is quite low and slight distortion occurs when volume turned up to max. Overall a good quality digital piano, would recommend it to anyone about to buy their first piano, my daughter can't stop playing! (in her own unique way) it, many thanks,

"The buttons are almost self-explanatory"

I’m delighted with the piano, and the manual is no problem. The buttons are almost self-explanatory or easy to work out,
though I think I’ll need to experiment a little more to get the most out of all the features. That’s the case with any versatile product!

"Your technician was punctual, knowledgeable and very helpful indeed, so all round a good result"

Hi Graham

Doubtless you're aware, but Jerry was here yesterday fixing the keyboard. Many thanks for arranging for him to do so. I didn't really know what the fault was, but it was explained to me and it's clear why the unit wasn't working properly. Everything is OK now.

I'm very pleased to have it back, and, listening to Jerry's assessment of various different models I'm also please to have that quality of board. I have to say that your technician was punctual, knowledgeable and very helpful indeed, so all round a good result.

Thanks, Adrian Taylor, Hatherleigh, Devon, UK

"You kindly sent your piano fixer up from London to Leicester and he did a fantastic job"

Dear Graham

I recently bought a digital piano from you (about June) but it had some sound problems. You kindly sent your piano fixer up from London to Leicester and he did a fantastic job.
My daughter is delighted now that the noise she complained of has gone. I have been meaning to thank you but have not got around to it. Thank you for your support. I hope you have a Happy and prosperous Christmas / New Year!

Regards

" think your excellent customer service combined with the 5 years warranty would compensate or outweigh for the aforementioned"

The sound is very nice and the touch quite heavy. I did not feel there was a distinctive difference between 'hard,soft, and normal'

The polished ebony look is just fantastic. unfrtunately when I was removing the selotape, a part of the silver paint came out. this made it look like an eyesore.

The price: definitely not a competitve price when compared to yamaha clavinova 220 PE. I have mostly used piano voices. I think they are ok. Speed of delivery was excellent despite the fact I had the piano delivered on one day and the stool on another day, but your communication was excellent.

helpfulness I consider the most important thing. You have been very helpful. I give 10/10 on this. 

In conclusion: think your excellent customer service combined with the 5 years warranty would compensate or outweigh for the aforementioned.

Kind regards
