Bentley. British Compact piano. Ideal starter instrument

Introduction. Bentley was founded in London by Douglas Grover in 1906, himself a third generation piano builder. In 1911 Grover moved his business to Woodchester in the Cotswolds renaming the business as the Stroud Piano Company. During the next 20 years production and range of pianos greatly expanded, even winning awards for export. During the 1980s, they were known as a maker of refined, good quality and good value pianos. Sadly, the 1990s were less kind to Bentley and sadly went into liquidation in 2003.

The Piano. The piano we have in stock here is a compact piano which would be an ideal piano for a beginner pianist. Its dimensions making ideal for smaller homes and the ease of the action make it great to play. This piano was built in 1983 and has a natural wood finish. The condition of this piano is very good, it has been very well cared for and maintained throughout its life. The tone is quite gentle and ideal for someone up to around grade 6 level.

It measures 100cm tall, 139cm long and 53cm deep,
