Professional Tuning and Technical Expertise
Golden Tone Piano Service
This is our premier service package on 25+
year-old pianos. This is a 2-day service and is
designed to truly bring the piano back to life
in the way it plays and sounds. A Golden Tune-Up is the ideal choice for piano owners who play regularly and would like their piano to have to have the full spectrum of service. This is also a good choice for new piano owners who have just acquired a new or used instrument to give them a good foundation to start off with. If the piano has not been serviced in a long time and the mechanical parts are in a state that inhibits the ability to play the piano's full dynamic range (loud AND Soft), this is the right service to select. Repetition is flawed and in need of correction. The touch feels "heavy" or difficult to play. The parts have settled and are in need of regulation. Your technician will improve the piano based on your specific needs and what is possible to achieve with the condition of the parts without replacement.​
