Thank you to Charley Dyson for sharing this wonderful video of the 'street' piano we have in Manchester Piccadilly on tiktok (@charley.dyson_)

Brand new from Atkin, this guitar is based off the classic Dustbowl guitars of the 20s and 30s. An all solid Mahogany guitar with a torrefied top and pre war scalloped bracing, the guitar also features a period correct ebony nut and an Indian Rosewood fretboard and bridge. With the classic Atkin lacquer finish, this is one of our current faves in the shop!

Our fantastic 'new' street piano is now in operation outside the shop (within opening hours 10am-5.30pm Monday to Saturday and 11am-5pm Sundays and Bank Holidays).
Our piano has been decorated in a unique way by Stephen Campbell and collaborative artists from the Puzzle Factory (http://www.thepuzzlefactory.co.uk/). We first got to know Stephen when he painted an amazing picture of our shop window in 2015. You can see (and buy!) reprints of this on our website here: https://www.forsyths.co.uk/music/sheet-music-accessories-novelties-gifts/130106-forsyth-on-canvas-oil-painting-by-stephen-m-campbell-.html
The waveform on the front of the piano represents a specific jazz chord. Stephen has created the paints and varnish used by hand. A truly unique and stunning piano.
The piano is currently part of the Manchester Jazz Festival 2022 Piano Trail #mjfpianotrail - a series of 13 pianos that we have installed across Manchester City Centre for the whole of May. You can enter a competition to win some fantastic prizes. For details on how to enter and the prizes on offer visit the Manchester Jazz Festival Website here https://manchesterjazz.com/mjf2022-piano-trail/
Here's a short video of the first lucky pianist to have a play our new piano.
