We'll make your piano smile and sing again!
Welcome to my Piano Blog page.
I haven’t been writing a lot on here that often.
But I wanted to create a page where you could learn more about pianos, and discover more resources about maintaining your piano, piano history, and even some tips on how to learn to play the piano.
Please sign up with your email to get our latest updates from this page.
You can also find a link to my Facebook page on this site, and like it, if you wish.

Rebuilt Piano Definition
A used piano that has been disassembled, inspected, and repaired as necessary with replacement of all worn or deteriorated parts, re-assembled, tested, and approved to at least the same tolerances as a new piano of like manufacture.
Reconditioned Piano Definition

Piano Tuning Definition
Piano tuning is the aligning of the musical pitch of the various notes of the piano, by adjusting the tension of the piano’s strings, in order to achieve a desired musical effect. Preferences in desired musical effects and methods in achieving those preferences will vary. Piano “tuning” does not involve the functioning of a piano’s key mechanism. (The “tune-up” of an automobile engine may involve keeping machinery running smoothly, but piano “tuning” by itself does not.)
