He was quick, smooth, the tuning sounds fantastic and now the antique piano can live some more years near the beach with the Dampp-Chaser installed. He was also kind enough to replace a missing ivory top at no charge. Aaaaaaand he was a fun hang!! Recommending him and his crew to everyone I know with piano needs. Thanks Russell!

I unfortunately cannot recommend Sabra. She gave my piano the quickest tuning I have ever…read moreexperienced. I own multiple high end, handmade pianos and have used the best RPTs in Los Angeles and San Diego prior and this experience was abysmal. There is a difference between tuning each string and ending up with a well-tuned, stable piano. I got the former, by far. No restitution was offered when I brought issues to her attention 48 hours after and it was blamed on climate change, which is complete b.s. when there were no humidity changes and the piano has a well-installed DamppChaser system on it. No tuning should go out as badly as hers did so quickly. Her tuning was cursory at worst and I was working and didn't give it a good enough listen but should one have to? I have perfect pitch and know the difference and should have checked for more than 30 seconds including all octaves. Any responsible tuner would stop by to do a quick touch up having charged $200 for 45 minutes of sub par work. STEER CLEAR. Waste of money. It needs complete retuning.

Unplayable. I am furious. I feel totally scammed. I spent $400 and my piano sounds worse than before. This person is not ethical and I demanded my money back and if I receive it I will consider making this a 3 star review.

Brandon is an incredible piano technician. If you are looking for someone who treats your…read moreinstrument with genuine care and doesn't just rush through a job, he is the one to call. I hired him for tuning and regulation. His overall process was much more in-depth compared to other tuners and technicians I've used in the past. He took the time necessary to really dial in the regulation and fix specific issues that others might have overlooked. What stands out most is his absolute passion for the craft. It was fascinating talking to him about piano construction, from the nuances of wood sources in Fazioli pianos to his own personal project restoring an antique Bechstein. You can tell he lives and breathes pianos. My instrument sounds and feels fantastic. Highly recommend!

Brandon was on time and did a wonderful job deep cleaning and tuning our piano. We didn't realize how much work the piano needed, but he explained and showed us all the areas of concern. He showed us what work was absolutely necessary to get the piano in decent shape for the Holidays right now, and what could be done in the near future. So grateful that he was able to move things around in his schedule and squeeze us in. His work was meticulous and neat and fairly priced. Thank you so much, Brandon!
