Bought a used Yamaha U1 a year ago and have been thrilled with it. While shopping around visited…read moresome well known Boston retailers such as Steinert, Williams, and while I had great experiences with them as well, I knew I was in the right place when I visited East Cambridge Piano. The building is not what you would expect, they are located on the third floor of an old building that almost feels more like a warehouse, I didn't think I had even found the right place at first. Prior to my visit, I would never have considered a used piano. However, the models they have are in absolutely mint condition, sound fantastic, and were all hand picked. It's clear the folks that work here are craftsmen and while they are very easy going they take what they do seriously. Felt very secure that I was getting a great product, and I did. Incredibly laid back environment, none of the nonsensical typical pretense you might find buying an instrument like this. I felt like I could have just hung out in there for a few hours. James answered all of my questions and then basically said "have at it, play whatever you want and let me know if you have any more questions". Zero pressure. They are coming out next week to do a tuning which was included with the purchase. I had to reschedule but James could not have been more accommodating. Go see this guy and buy a piano from him.

Consumer beware - you may schedule a piano tuning and be charged $185 for Fred's Piano Service to…read moredo absolutely nothing. Although we have had our pianos tuned by various tuners over the years, our last tuner retired and referred us to Fred's Piano Service. Going on the good recommendation, we booked a tuning after our recent move. Prior to the service I was informed a tuning by Fred's Piano Service usually costs $185. On the tuning day, the tuner came to my apartment and started working on my Yamaha U1. He was friendly and cordial throughout. After about thirty minutes (in which we were chatting most of the time) he informed me that the piano needed some major work - almost a $1,000 worth of work - before he could tune it. I thanked him for his assessment of my piano and asked if I owed him something for the thirty minutes at my house. Yes - I owed him $185, the same amount that I would have paid had he tuned my piano (a typical tuning takes 1.5-2 hours). This charge for thirty minutes, for a service I didn't ask for, seemed outrageous to me. I called the office and asked to speak with the owner of Fred's Piano Service. He didn't call me back until the following day. Talking with Fred himself was absolutely one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had. In our phone conversation he constantly interrupted me and absolutely refused to listen. His excuse for his exorbitant "estimate" cost on my piano - an estimate I didn't even ask for! - was that he needed to pay the gas and social security for the tuner who came to my house. He gave the example of taking a car to the mechanic, where you may go in for a regular oil change but only to realize that it needed more work. Fred must be so delusional to still pay for the oil change if the mechanic tells him it's not doable. He had also cashed my check before I was able to have a conversation with him. I've never met a business owner who is so willing to tarnish his business name for $185. He would not even consider a reduced service charge for this bogus "estimate" on my piano - an estimate I DIDN'T EVEN ASK FOR. I was willing to be reasonable and pay for the thirty minutes that the tuner was in my home. I was NOT willing to pay for a full tuning, that I DID NOT receive, and be charged an exorbitant fee for an 'estimate' I DID NOT WANT. As a business owner, it would have been in Fred's best interests to listen more to his customers and try to be reasonable in helping them walk away happy. I was a new customer to his business, and with my extensive piano teacher contacts throughout Boston I could have been a valuable customer to him. A better piano tuning business would have, after a few minutes with my piano, ascertained that tuning was not possible that day, and ask me if I would like to proceed by providing an estimate for work to be done. I was absolutely taken advantage of by the shady business practices of Fred's Piano Service, and will not only never do business with them, I will make sure my piano teacher colleagues are aware of how Fred does business.

Initial communication was clear, courteous, and prompt, and the final bill was the same as the original estimate. Saul and Cody showed up on time and were professional, calm, and friendly throughout the move.

Saul paid close attention to what was going and what wasn't, and there were no miscommunications. At the other end of the move, they asked where the furniture should go and got the apartment set up quickly and efficiently, with no damages. Our family really appreciated the kindness and hard work of Saul and Cody during this major life event. Top recommendations!
