What started as a routine piano tuning revealed a much bigger issue.

During tuning, I noticed several hammers double-striking. Further inspection showed it wasn’t just an isolated problem — the keyboard and action regulation were significantly out of adjustment.

Sometimes one small symptom can reveal a much bigger mechanical issue.

Tuning corrects the pitch. Regulation corrects how the piano plays.

🎹 A year later — and still remarkably stable.

Back in Newtown today tuning this beautiful Bechstein grand, almost one year after my last visit. The pitch and tuning had moved only slightly.

Good tuning technique matters, but so does the environment. This piano lives in an older Newtown home with very little direct sunlight, helping keep temperature changes relatively stable.

Sometimes a cool, shaded room is exactly what a piano likes. 🎶

A little transformation today ✨🎹

These grand piano pedals had years of tarnish and oxidation, leaving them dull, brown and heavily marked.

After removing the oxidation and carefully polishing the metal, the original gold finish came back beautifully — almost a mirror finish.

It’s a small detail, but freshly polished pedals can make a huge difference to the overall appearance of a piano.

Sometimes the shine is still there — it’s just hiding underneath a few decades of use.

A beautiful Sauter upright piano given some well-deserved care today. 🎹

The piano received a thorough internal clean followed by a full tuning, removing accumulated dust and bringing the instrument back to a clean, stable and musical condition.

Regular cleaning isn’t just cosmetic — dust and debris can build up around the action, keys and interior over many years. Combined with regular tuning, it helps keep an acoustic piano performing at its best.

Now this Sauter is looking cleaner, sounding better, and ready to be enjoyed again.

🎹 A Clean Piano Is More Than Just a Good-Looking Piano

Dust and debris naturally build up inside a piano over the years, especially underneath the keys and around the action. Because these areas are normally hidden, many owners are surprised by just how much can accumulate.

A thorough internal clean can:

✨ Remove years of dust, hair and debris
🎹 Help keys and action parts move freely
🛠️ Make it easier to spot developing mechanical problems
🐭 Reveal signs of insects or rodents before more damage occurs
🌿 Reduce dust and contaminants inside the instrument
✨ Keep the piano looking well cared for inside and out

This Kawai received a deep clean beneath the keyboard, removing a substantial layer of accumulated dust and bringing the keybed back to a much cleaner condition.

Piano cleaning is particularly worthwhile for older and second-hand instruments where the interior may not have been cleaned for many years.

💧 Moisture absorbers inside your piano — good idea?

I often find moisture bags or containers inside pianos. Unfortunately, they usually do little to control humidity because a piano cabinet isn’t sealed.

⚠️ Avoid liquid-collecting moisture absorbers — if they leak, the salty solution can damage timber and corrode metal parts.

For better protection, aim for a stable room humidity of around 40–60%.

🎹 Stable humidity = happier piano!

🎹 Three Grand Pianos, Three Different Voices

Kawai, Bechstein and Yamaha — three grand pianos I recently worked on, each with its own distinctive tone and character.

It’s tempting to associate a particular sound with a brand or model, but in reality, a piano’s tone is influenced by far more than the name on the fallboard.

The initial factory setup and voicing, age and amount of use, hammer condition, regulation, tuning and maintenance history, room acoustics, temperature and humidity can all significantly affect what we hear. Even two pianos of the same model and similar age can develop quite different tonal characters over time.

And, of course, tone is personal. One pianist may prefer a warm, mellow and rounded sound, while another wants greater brightness, clarity and projection.

Brand, model, size and design certainly influence a piano’s fundamental character, but they don’t determine the final result on their own. Every piano develops its own voice — and good tuning, regulation and voicing help bring out the best in the individual instrument.
