When Marty tunes a piano for me to perform on, I hear clear tones in the treble, in tune octaves in both the treble and bass, and stability due to his technique. I would recommend him for any type of piano service!

Full Restoration of a 1909 Steinway Model O
This instrument was built in 1909 by the Steinway Piano Company in New York, NY. It is easily recognizeable as a Model O due to its totally round nose. It is 5’10” in length.
The restoration of this fine grand piano will include:
- new soundboard
- new bridge caps
- new 5-ply Maple Bolduc pinblock
- new Mapes strings
- new wippens
- new key bushings
- new hammers, hammer shanks and flanges
Also included is a new back action, new blued tuning pins, new nickel-plated hardware and screws as well as all new felts. The African Mahogany case will be refinished in a brown tone, hand rubbed lacquer finish. The original ebony and ivory keyboard will be retained due its excellent condition. A new artist’s bench will be finished to match the piano.
