Buying a Piano

People who own grand pianos or any piano for that matter may have to invest quite a bit of their own time and many in maintaining the instrument. Tuning is very important for owners of grand pianos and this usually requires a specialist piano tuner to be called in as very few people will have the know how or the expertise to tune their own piano. Grand pianos that are used frequently at home should be tuned at least twice a year, although they could require more frequent tuning depending on their quality and how they are played. Concert grand pianos will be tuned before every performance. Grand pianos will gradually become further and further out of tune if they are left for a long time without tuning, so it is important to have grand pianos tuned regularly.

Maintaining the voicing of grand pianos is another important task for owners that will again require the assistance of a professional. The hammers which strike the strings in grand pianos can become hard over time which causes the strings to produce a bright and trebly sound which can become unpleasant. This can be avoided by having the hammers’ felt heads softened by a technician.
