Makin Allan Sons Pianos

It’s best to start with some details on opening hours. The opening hours for Saturday are like normal shop hours, however, you can also visit during the week. If you call ahead to tell the shop you are coming then you can visit Monday to Friday 10am till 5pm, but not unless you do this. When you get there the staff are normally working elsewhere repairing some pianos (I guess they don’t think you’re likely to just walk off with a piano) you unless you request some guidance and advice (which I suggest you do early if you want it) then you will be left to your own devices.
The first thing you’ll notice about these pianos is that they are stunning. Put any of these in an art gallery and they won’t look out of place. You are looking at a reasonable sum of money spent here, these aren’t some cheap Casio keyboards, but you are getting something of unbelieveable quality. Even if you aren’t looking to buy a walk around here is a fabulous use of time, but if you do this I suggest you go on the Saturday not during the week as the staff won’t mind you looking on Saturdays, but they prefer buying during the week.

Upmarket piano store, now run by «sons» rather than Allan Makin. This is where the Edinburgh elite goes for its Steinways, Bechsteins and Bosendorfers. Refurbishment and piano tuning services, too.
