Hitting The Right Note
“We talk to Rimmers Music about their fabulous new boutique piano and keyboard showroom in Edinburgh and how they can teach you to play”
Rimmers Music (Est.1978) has an excellent reputation and is regarded as one of the best Musical Instrument Retail Companies in the UK. They are celebrating the opening of a fabulous new store they have acquired in Edinburgh.
Situated on Elm Row in the heart of Edinburgh new town area, this will be store number nine and the first time Rimmers Music have ventured into Scotland with a physical store.
Having already supplied Scottish customers via their online website sales (www.rimmersmusic.co.uk) and Scottish schools by being a registered trusted education supplier via Scotland Excel tendering system, they are no strangers to Scotland.
Managing Director Gary tells me: “We are very proud to be opening a branch in Scotland. I was looking for a while, so to finally be able to open a store in the capital city is an amazing opportunity for my company and I look forward to serving the Scottish community for many years to come.”
With the promise of fabulous opening offers this could be an excellent opportunity to get the piano and keyboard you have always dreamed of playing.
I was very impressed when I visited this store for a sneak preview as it boasts one of the biggest selections of musical instruments I have ever seen, all displayed to perfection. The staff at the store will give you unparalleled service and explain the ranges with excellent knowledge, and consideration.
The store has huge displays of Yamaha pianos and keyboards with associated accessories. This includes the whole range of Yamaha Clavinovas, such as the CLP and CVP ranges, as well as YDP models from the Yamaha Arius range. In addition to the extensive range of digital pianos and keyboards from Yamaha, they also stock a number of upright and grand pianos in the store, including the best-selling upright piano in the world, the Yamaha B1. Prices range from just £369.99 to over £100, 000.
Gary Explains: “We have the entire range of Yamaha digital pianos and keyboards on display and a range of acoustic grand and upright pianos. This is the only store in the whole of Scotland were you can see such a range in one location.”
Retailing both new and used equipment, catering for beginners and professional musicians, Rimmers Music has a reputation for offering competitive prices (always with long guarantees for peace of mind) and excellent part exchange prices. They also buy old instruments to recycle and sell enabling customers get a refurbished bargain.
Yamaha Specialist Richard Bower tells me: “We price check daily to ensure we give all our customers the best deal possible. If you find a better deal than we offer we would be very surprised and like to hear about it. We also offer 0% interest free credit on all purchases of £250.00 or over. We aim to make the musical instrument you want affordable and easy to purchase.”
Offering all customers a Free Lesson in their Rimmers Music School (located conveniently above the store), they teach daily until 8.00pm. Currently piano, keyboard, guitar and music theory tuition are available.
Gary Summarises: “It is our aim to give you the best customer service and purchasing experience possible. All our staff receive regular training on customer care and product knowledge to ensure this is achieved.
The showroom has ample parking on the street just in front of the store; its also open 7 days, so if you are looking for a musical instrument or interested in learning how to play this store is well worth a visit.
