If you’ve decided to give yourself or your child the gift of music, you might have sticker shock looking at how much pianos cost. Of course, there are many ways to save. If you’re hunting on price alone, chances are you’ve even found someone willing to “give” their piano to you at no cost.
Your piano will be your tool to create great music. The saying “you get what you pay for” applies here. If you take the time to find a high quality piano, you’re going to love the results, have the desire to play it more, and stick with it throughout your life.
Is there a best time of year to buy a new piano, to get the best deal possible? Turns out, there is.
Holidays
Over the holidays, people are busy traveling and spending time with loved ones. They head out more. They travel more. And they’re less likely to shop for an instrument. At the same time, piano dealers understand that if you want to provide your family with a unique gift, it’s a great time to clear out older inventory and make room for newer models. That makes this the perfect time for you to save.
Back to school
As school bells ring again in the fall, families go on the hunt for the perfect afterschool activities to enroll their children in. As a part of the process, piano dealers know lots of families will look towards the arts and push their children into discovering music. You can find deals on new and used pianos as they offer back to school sales.
Summer
What do you think about as the weather turns warm and the summer months roll along? Chances are it’s got nothing to do with sitting inside. Piano dealers know that and frequently offer deals on both new and used pianos in an attempt to move inventory and clear the way for newer pianos coming in for the fall. If you have your heart set on a particular style or brand, this is a great time to head into a piano center and take the time to learn more about particular brands. Ask as many questions as you need to find the right piano for your needs.
Other holidays
At the end of the day, piano showrooms are in the business of selling pianos. They operate similarly to other businesses in that they try and find ways to be approachable by their community. If you’re thinking about investing in a piano, you can watch for great deals throughout the year based on current events. Will you find a President’s Day sale, or even one celebrating the Fourth of July? Stop by; working with a dealer might even reward you with the piano you’ve been longing for at the best deal possible.
Pianos are an investment. They deliver year-round enjoyment for many years to come. No matter what your goals and dreams are for purchasing an instrument, buying a new piano is easy when you build a relationship with your local piano dealer.
