Peter is fantastic. I purchased an inexpensive piano that…read morehadn't been tuned in years. I looked around online for a while and chose him because he was close, reasonable and all the other people looked really pretentious (he looks really kind in his picture). I submitted my information on a Saturday and figured I'd hear back later in the week but he contacted me within the hour and was able to fit me in the very next day! He was exactly what I'd hoped for: straight-forward, easy-going and not-judgy about my low-brow piano (Wurlitzer spinet). I totally left the door open for him to charge me extra by indicating that my piano hadn't been tuned in some time and might need a more expensive service. He explained that I basically didn't need it. I also asked about a minor repair and he showed me how I could take care of it myself. He was extremely candid about my piano ("it's in good shape and doesn't need any repairs which is kind of unusual for purchasing an older piano." "Some people say you should have your piano tuned 6 months after a move but I don't see why you would need it in less than a year"). Whenever you're in a situation where you don't really know anything (servicing a car, piano, boat, whatever), it's really important that you feel you can trust the person doing the service. I trust peter completely and will use him again every time I get my piano tuned.

When I first met Jeff And he looked over the damaged piano and talked about restoring it to it's original glory I knew it was in good hands.

They are encouraging but also putting emphasis on his progress. He is practicing and is noticeably getting better as the weeks go by.

I recently had him upgrade the pickups in my Telecaster, which I've re-named the TELEBLASTER, he did great work, the guitar sounds fantastic. This is a terrific spot both for lessons and repairs. Highly recommended!!!

I decided to have my old Fender Rhodes repaired and found Max online. Not only did he fix the…read moreproblem quickly, but he educated me about various aspects of tuning and the electronics. I discovered that I had a hybrid piano with elements of two different years. He only wanted the $30 initial fee but I had to give him at least $50 for the great service and education. Even with that it was a bargain and he was a good guy to learn from. I lucked out by calling him first.

What an amazing Gem tucked into the South Loop along Michigan Avenue…read more You can find the location by looking for the Vertical Sign consisting of a Piano Keyboard Keys.... There are three floors to this location. I was here for a social engagement/film screening on the second floor-individuals or groups can rent out this room which consists of a screen (pull down)/projector capability as well as a piano and guest seating for approximately 40 people (or more). It was great to see a film in this second floor room as it was constructed to emulate sound in a truly melodic way....it was an amazing location to see a classic movie and have a group discussion.
