Craftsmen Piano Rebuilders
A piano will excite and stimulate
the three human senses of
touch, hearing, and sight.
The rebuilder has three distinct
and different jobs to do.
The piano action,
consisting of almost 12,000 parts,
has to be rebuilt to respond
to the most difficult
technical musical passages,
as well as to the
most subtle, quiet, and heart felt passions of the pianist.
That dynamic range between
explosive energy and moodiness presents the piano rebuilder
with a demanding and exacting
set of challenges with
no room for error.
Our Mission ...
Nothing commands
the immediate attention of one's eye like the sight of an immaculately refinished grand piano.
Many people purchase a grand piano solely for that reason alone!
Some of the earlier grands from the 1870's through the 1920's
used the rarest and
most sought after veneers
found from all corners of the world. Many of these veneers
have grain patterns and colors
that can not be duplicated
by any means at any cost.
They are truly
mother natures original artwork .
Craftsmen Piano Rebuilders
refinishes these pianos
in closed grain, clear lacquer finishes, customizing the stain color
and final hand rub out
to meet the clients requirements.
All of the details
are carefully completed.
New fallboard and soundboard decals are clear coated into the finish.
All hardware is either re-
bright nickel or high polished
if solid brass and then clear coated
with a special clear coat
before reassembly.
All case felts and rubber buttons
are replaced and then
final assembly is completed.
The final result is an
instrument of incomparable beauty
to the eyes, ears,
and the pianist's touch.
