That's also, for what it is worth, been my experience at Music City Buffalo. I went in there originally for voice and guitar lessons after getting frustrated with my lack of progress on my own. The lessons--particularly voice lessons with Carina, store owner Vince Mastrantonio's partner--were helpful, and built a relationship that made me trust them enough to buy instruments (people in the business can be kind of shady, and so this is important to me). Vince will work with you (within reason, of course) on prices, and I've now picked up three guitars from MCB. (If you are a Gretsch fan, there is hardly a reason to go anyplace else.) I've also had my upright bass set up there, picked up a used amp, have another guitar repair planned, and will be back for guitar lessons with Vince--an accomplished guitarist himself, which is always a bonus in a teacher--likely this summer. I've always been happy with the turnover, the pricing on purchases and repairs, and the quality of the work. We've also taken to seeing their three-piece jazz-noir band, Carina and the Six-string Preacher, around town. They're cool people who like engaging with the crowd, and I think that's a good way to sum up Music City Buffalo as well.

Now, don't send me hate mail about the fact that there are other companies still producing rolls, from my knowledge, the other companies are art-house style operations with limited distribution and in the piano roll world, that's really limited. Alas, piano rolls have mostly gone the way of the vinyl record. The demand for player piano or pianola rolls has been kept alive by a dedicated group of collectors like me. There is nothing like actually hearing and feeling the performance. So, there's the good news. The less good news is that QRS is no longer owned and operated locally, factory tours are no longer available, and important historical pieces have been moved out of the area and are now on display at a museum in Arizona. This includes the QRS Marking Piano which was named by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers as a National Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark in 1992. Gotta' roll!
