Tone and Touch
Our pianos help instill a creative spirit into playing. As a piano is being prepared for musical enjoyment, care is taken to provide the optimum tone and touch weight for the instrument. If a customer is interested in a piano on our floor but would prefer a different tone or touch weight, Dan has the expertise to customize the piano to fit his or her preference. This expertise comes from Dan's many years as both a piano technician and a pianist.
Respect
A piano is a once in a lifetime purchase. While we know pianos, we also respect that the customer may have a specific sound in mind. We realize that we can't "be all things to all people," and we encourage the shopper to take time to listen to other alternatives. If a customer is satisfied with a piano from another vendor, we are happy that they found their dream instrument.
Trust
Customers trust us. As you can see from the testimonials, Dan has built a reputation on people trusting his expertise.

Baldwin Halmiton
This is a beautifully reconditioned Baldwin Halmiton that was built in 1982. It has been tuned, cleaned voiced and regulated. Baldwin built a great studio upright during this period. The fact that so many are still is use is a testament to that. One problem these pianos had was that the keys were not weighed off at the factory, so the action was typically uneven feeling.
