    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.

    An experience of high quality from start to finish. Having visited a number of show-rooms in…read moreseveral states on my piano search, I feel that Falcetti's provided excellent service that I cannot help but recommend to others. Here is why. *Pre-Purchase* The instruments in Falcetti Pianos showroom are in consistently excellent regulation, voicing and tuning (this consistency is not present in other showrooms I visited in various states). Making an appointment was easy and once there I was able to take my time with the instruments, alone in the showroom. On his own initiative, Conner even turned off the AC to create a listening environment to get to know each instrument's nuance. The opportunity to really LISTEN this way is itself worth the price of entry. I found the staff at Falcettis to be more like resources and less like sales-people: they gave me generous time and space to get to know the instruments without any sort of pressure. When I had questions, Conner and Jake were quite knowledgeable, and I feel I learned from them. *Purchase* When I found a pre-owned instrument with which I feel in love, I was offered the opportunity to place a fully refundable deposit to hold the instrument while I visited other showrooms and played other pianos. Again, no pressure. Once I was certain that this instrument was for me, Conner was extremely helpful not just in arranging the purchase but also in helping me source an artist bench at an incredible price, arranging to move my current instrument at no additional cost and arranging a tech to come and re-install a Dampp-Chaser humidity system (that we use as a sort of humidity insurance along with ambient humidification) at no additional cost. At each turn, I was met with generosity and a helpfulness that turned what could easily have become a cumbersome, complex process with many moving parts into something that was, simply, easy. *Move* The moving team communicated in a timely way, was timely (they completed their work ahead of schedule) and, again, made the entire operation easy. Omar, Falcetti's tech who came to reinstall the humidity system on the new instrument was excellent. Timely, did excellent work. A pleasure to work with him. Overall: I am so happy, and thankful, to start what I am certain will be a long-term relationship with Falcetti Pianos.

    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.

He came in with the best price and the bonus was that he knew the guys at the venue we were using and was able to coordinate timing with them. Yay! I definitely recommend him for your piano needs. Plus he is a Berklee grad!

I brought my own strings and the guy had no clue how to fix the instrument and wasted my time trying to. He then suggested I should learn guitar and wanted me to sign up for guitar lessons. No thanks, I'm good. He then rips out his guitar and starts playing "guess what song I'm playing" and when he forgets the lyrics, I supply them. What the fuck am I doing here? Did I sign up for an open mic show? Is this guy tripping? As an added bonus, they ask all kinds of personal questions as you try to figure out your easiest escape. There is a guy out front that keeps on walking back and forth in front of the store. This is creepy. They push the guitar lessons again and find a way to insult me, maybe because I don't want to take his guitar lessons? Then he gives me his number so I can be sure to call to sign up for the lessons. With you? Are you out of your mind? Yes, you are out of your mind. And I know the safest thing for me to do with someone like that, is not to get angry, just humor him and GTF outta there asap. Longer than I thought it would take, but I'm still here living to tell the tale. And I won't be back.
