Sykes & Sons

We are very proud to offer this lovely modern upright piano by the highly respected British manufacturer, Welmar.

 

Welmar was established in 1925 by

Whelpdale, Maxwell & Codd Ltd. (WMC).

Welmar had a reputation for building very high quality, stable pianos with a very fine touch and tone.

 

WMC was originally the U.K agent for the very famous German manufacturer, Blüthner. WMC learned a great deal from this close working relationship and incorporated many characteristics and designs - otherwise unique to Blüthner - into their own pianos. The use of 'royal blue' felt on Welmar pianos is symbolic of the relationship between these two manufacturers.

 

Welmar pianos have always been an integral part of our stock, appreciated by students and teachers alike. These pianos are wonderfully expressive instruments as they were built with the Blüthner tone in mind, by craftsmen devoted to the art of piano building.

 

The Welmar A2 is the most popular model of Welmar. Whilst offering a full 88 note keyboard, this model is praised for its responsive touch, which is coupled with the signature delicacy and clarity of tone.

Like many of our pianos, this Welmar, housed in an oiled teak case, has been owned by the same family since it was new, with whom it was a treasured part of the family home.
 

Like all our pianos offered for sale, this Welmar A2 has been reconditioned and fully serviced in our workshop and comes complete with a brand new adjustable stool, free UK delivery*, and The Sykes & Sons Guarantee.
