Best Piano Tuning Service Concord Near Me

4worldlovers: There is a certain pride and accomplishment that comes in doing what I do. When I get to a piano, I am able to bring a breath of life into an instrument. A piano that may not have been used in decades or even a century. Turning an un-tuned, unplayable piece of furniture into a beautiful music box of limitless possibility brings a smile to my face. I know I've done well by it's owner. I know that the instrument will be appreciated for what it is meant to be. Furthermore, I know that with regular maintenance, the piano will be enjoyed for a lifetime. Working with the pianist and hearing their concerns is very important to me. I communicate with them on the needs of the instrument. I make time to recognize problems and work efficiently to diagnose any issues. Player satisfaction is my ultimate goal with every piano that I work on. I love making an instrument brilliant again. It gives me pleasure to bring an artists' desires to life through the piano. I provide the skills of my craft to each job to ensure that your piano will you bring you delight for years to come.

Ramin did a great job tuning and fixing my 116 years old piano. He explained every step of the process and even taught me how to do regular maintenance to keep the piano in great shape. I highly recommend him!

I give mr ramin a five star rating... and he truly deserves the highest rating possible. I highly recomment mr ramin. He is truly a professional who carres a wealth of knowledge and technical skills to perfectly tune my piano. I have a relatively new upright yamaha piano - and he didnt only explain the process and dynamics behind tuning a piano but as to the overall well being of the piano like we were talking of a living equipment, so to speak. I am so glad i found mr ramin. I am so happy with the turn out of the piano tuning and i am now aware of what to expect on sound dynamics. Thank you so much mr ramin. From your new and forever client F.Alli

The proper adjustment of pitch. Unless otherwise specified, your piano will be tuned to the international standard pitch, A-440.

The adjustment of “tone,” which you can think of as the “brightness” or “mellowness” of the sound. Although “concert-level” voicing can be time-consuming, sometimes a tuned piano only needs a few minutes of voicing to create a sweeter and more balanced tone.

Any of the numerous types of adjustments that can be made to improve the sensitivity and responsiveness of the keys and mechanism.

If it’s broken, sticky, squeaky, buzzy, dead or dying, I can fix it!
