Buy a Piano With Confidence & Peace of Mind
Pianos are among the most complex and intricate instruments ever made.
Before you invest in a piano, you want to be sure all the components are healthy and properly functioning.
By going through us you can be secure knowing that each of our pianos have been thoroughly inspected,
come fully serviced and professionally delivered, and include a 1 year warranty on the mechanical and structural integrity.
This is a much safer, and more reliable method of getting a piano, rather than buying a used piano 'as-is' from an owner
that may not know the true condition of it, and likely hasn't had it serviced or tuned for years.
Then you need to coordinate and pay $200 - $600 for moving, followed by more expenses arranging for a piano tuner to get it tuned,
and the piano still hasn't been cleaned, lubricated, regulated or polished, and may have unforeseen problems which surface that require costly repairs.
On the other hand, buying a new or even used piano from a piano dealer can be prohibitively expensive.
We aim for the sweet spot of both quality and affordability, and make finding the right piano for you an enjoyable and easy experience!
We also accept donations, trade-ins and buy pianos (depending on brand)
Additionally, we offer professional piano moving services anywhere in the Bay Area.
If you purchase a nice piano elsewhere, we can pick it up and bring to our workshop to
have the piano fully serviced and then delivered to your home with tuning guaranteed.
