Classenti Grand Pianos
“Classenti grand pianos have a warm, resonant tone and a nice, responsive key touch. All-in-all very good value. And they’re certainly worth considering against some of the more expensive makes”, Graham Howard – Piano Advisor.

Comments
Dear Graham,
“Thanks for the seamless and speedy delivery of the Classenti Grand piano.
I am really pleased with it, and getting used to it in the house.”
Claire Kettingam, Twickenham, Middx., UK
Slow Closing Safety Lid
This feature is much needed for parents with young children. Because the lid closes slowly on a hydraulic mechanism, there’s no chance little fingers can get hurt.
Spruce Soundboard
Superior, ultra flexible spruce from the Tibet mountains
Maple Wood Bridges
Bridges, which are glued to the soundboard, are under extreme downward pressure from the tension of the strings. The down pressure on the bridges can be as much as the weight of a double decker bus! This is why they have to be strong. Classenti use solid, high quality maple wood bridges from Europe. Nothing but the best!
Roslau Strings
These strings are made in Germany since 1882. They’re recognised throughout the world to be the finest available. Roslau strings provide superior tuning stability and a clear, vibrant sound.
Agraffes
Classenti pianos are fitted with agraffes throughout. Agraffes help your piano stay in tune for longer. They also ensure the string stays in a straight line from tuning pin to bridge pin.
Pin Block
Laminated wood pin block. The pin block holds the tuning pins, and the tuning pins hold the tension of the strings. The pin block is crucial to keeping your piano in tune. By using several laminations (layers) of wood, the tuning pins can be gripped much tighter. The result is a piano that lasts for many years longer.
Action
Renner are the world’s leading manufacturer of piano actions (mechanisms). Classenti use Renner Technology from Germany in all their piano actions.
Pedals
3 Silver Pedals: Sustain (right pedal), Practice (middle), Soft (right)
Sustain pedal: This is the pedal on the right. It is sometimes referred to as a ‘damper pedal’. This pedal allows you to sustain (hold) any note, or notes, without having to hold the key down.
Practice pedal: This is the pedal in the middle. If you want to play late at night, or you simply don’t want your neighbours to hear you, then the practice pedal will be really useful for you. This is how it works: when you press down the middle pedal, a strip of felt inside the piano raises up and sits in between the hammers and the strings. The hammers then hit the felt instead of the strings. This results in a quite, muffled sound.
Soft pedal: This is the pedal on the left. Pressing this down makes the sound a lot quieter. It’s very useful when you want to play something very delicate (pp or ppp in musical terms).
Wheels
Classenti grands three silver wheels that make it much easier to move your piano around.
Hinges, Screws, Lock Rail
Silver hardware throughout.
15 year warranty on structure and parts
Classenti grand pianos are also available with a SILENT system: The silent system allows you to play with headphones, and select different sounds, read more.
