First of all, Kevin is indeed a pretty cool dude. However, he came and tuned my piano last year and…read moreit left a little something to be desired service-wise. He did an okay job...used an electric tuner which I've just never gotten as good a tuning from anyone who doesn't do it aurally. It did sound okay. But really just okay. A good tuning should make you go "wow" once you play it after and this most certainly did not have that effect. He didn't have a very professional setup either. Just a backpack with the tuner and like 2 wrenches from what I saw. Flip flops which he promptly removed. I guess I'm just stuffy but I don't feel like a professional service should be performed by someone barefoot unless its a surf lesson or something. He also, showed up quite late which was frustrating. Granted it was raining heavy at the time and traffic...but still. And there were communication issues from him getting the appointment set up. He said he was late for the appt because of a concert he went to the night before. Which he showed me a video of...it was pretty cool, but not what I'm paying for. The tuning didn't take very long even though it had been a long while since the previous tuning and the piano was really needing some work. Like I said he did an okay job, it sounded okay but far from the top level tunings I've received in the past. He also, played it a lot...I appreciate a tuner who can also play well enough but it almost seemed like he was performing for me or something. Which was odd. He wasn't a bad player, I just didn't pay him the 130 or 150 it cost to tune to hear him play. I actually had to get him to stop and ask if he was finished. He was there much less than hr which also seemed like too short a time to do a really thorough job...I couldn't say for sure but it seemed, cursory. And my piano broke a string less than a week after he was there. That's literally never happened on my workhorse piano. Maybe it was just time and would of happened no matter what, but given that it happened so short after his tuning...I don't know, its suspicious to me. Not saying, just saying. Also, he bent my ear for a while about South American spiritual retreats and such, and astrological values in Japan, which while intriguing enough to me, is again...not what I'm paying for. And he was barefoot. Anyways, like I said he was a pretty nice fellow and did an okay job, but there were just too many things that didn't feel quite right about the whole thing; the communication; the comportment and unfortunately the overall quality of service. Honestly he didn't really seem to have much interest or passion in what he was doing which in my experience is somewhat rare for technicians...Seemed more like an adventurer who occasionally tunes a piano for extra cash. This is quite cool, but I want a technician who is totally invested in their practice. Adam Pryzbla or Nathan Cook are both Austin area technicians who in my experience offer a much superior service all around.

I'm very pleased with the tuning.

Ron pitched & tuned a piano that has been in my family for 20+ years, and when he heard it was my childhood piano, he was kind enough to give me a history on the company and look up even more information about the piano for me. He walked me through what he was doing & why, and since he had sent his pricing ahead of time, there were no surprises when it came to payment. He also plays beautifully, which is always a plus!! I will absolutely use his services in the future & recommend him for all of your piano needs.

Ron's response was to belittle me and tell me he left if exactly where he intended. He sure seems to think a lot of himself but apparently doesn't stand by his work or care about his reputation.

Most places didn't respond to my request for an estimate and the couple that did wanted me to sign a contract to have the piano tuned every year or pay them a $75 traveling fee to drive from south Austin to Cedar Park. Then I turned to "Thumbtack" to find a piano tuner. Derek was the first to respond. He owns and operates TX PIANOS, and he responded personally. Gave me a reasonable quote on line to tune the piano (which had not been tuned for 5 or 6 years) and replace a broken string. When I asked about travel pay, he said that if he had 2 or more appointments in the same town he did not charge travel pay. It just so happened he had another tuning appointment scheduled a couple of days later in Cedar Park, so he waived the travel pay. He sent me a text to remind me of the appointment. He sent another text with a location tracker to show me where he was when he was on the way to my house. Derek is very personable and easy to work with. Even my big ole' furry Australian Shepherd, who barks at everyone who tries to enter our house, took up with Derek and walked right up to him, allowed a couple of pets, and never barked at him once during the visit. Derek described what he would need to do and completed the job of tuning and replacing the two broken strings in just a little over an hour. The piano sounded great when he finished and it was more "out of tune" than I thought. Due to the age of the piano and the mallets, we talked about performing a voicing to bring back the rich soft timbre the piano had when it was new, 40 years ago. Again, I received a very reasonable price for the service whenever I decide to have it done. He also put me on a "check-in" schedule for every 6 months to see if I have any other needs throughout the year. It was a pleasure talking with Derek about the piano and we even joked around about our playing techniques - or lack thereof! But most of all, he was reliable and honest and an expert at getting my old grand back in tune. I will not be looking for a piano technician again now that I have met Derek. If you need piano repair or just a tuning, you will not be disappointed with TX PIANO.
