Most pianos will cost $165.00 – $175.00 (in regular service area). Pianos that have not been tuned for more than 2 years may experience instability with the first tuning until a subsequent tuning (usually within 6 months) is performed.Īll pianos are tuned to standard pitch (A=440) unless otherwise noted. There is no other testing and educational organization for the piano technician in the United States. Registered Piano Technicians have been tested and certified by the Piano Technicians Guild® as qualified tuners/technicians.

PIANO TUNER SEATTLE MOVIE
There is an Alfred Hitchcock movie prop from the film Vertigo hanging from the large wooden beam in our showroom, the remains of a cool old hoist system that used railroad ties to glide back and forth on near our ceiling, and if you’re lucky our resident pug Pizza may be there to greet you. This building has gone through a preservation that has kept it in great shape, but also allowed it to retain all of the character it has developed from over the decades. Our building is over 100 years old and has brick walls that extend 40 feet high.

We refurbish to this extent because of a genuine love of the craft. This is NOT a cost effective process, which is why you will not see work to this degree in most shops across the country. This is a hard thing to sum up in a short paragraph, but essentially this is a no screw left unturned procedure that involves dismantling the piano down to its core and extends to very detailed cosmetic and mechanical work which results in bringing our pianos back to like new condition. Our used pianos look and sound beautiful.Įach and every piano we sell has gone through a very extensive refurbishing process. If for some reason we don’t have the right piano for you, I will happily recommend colleagues from other stores in the area that can further help you find that instrument that you’ve been searching for. I would love to sell you a piano, but what is more important to me is that you find the piano that is right for you. I’m sure most stores strive to be low pressure, but I am probably low pressure to fault. We don’t have commission based sales people… It’s just me. I started Seattle Piano Company for a few reasons: one, I wanted to spend my days working on pianos in a cool old brick building two, I wanted to work with only a select few manufacturers and three, I wanted to provide a store that served the community with pianos that have been brought back to like new condition at an approachable price point. I’ve been working with pianos for about half of my life now and refurbishing them is my life’s passion. Seattle Piano Company is owned and operated by me, Aaron Firpo.
