Most of our customers prefer a complete and total restoration as opposed to many restoration shops which merely refurbish and repair portions of their instruments. 

Our restoration includes plating of pedals, pressure bar, and other parts that may be seen.  Your restoration may include plating of every other piece you specify for an extra fee.

Restoration in our shop includes parts and supplies by the finest quality suppliers we can find.  Of course, you may specify your own preferences if you like.

Grand Piano Action parts are from Renner USA. (These action parts are used on new Mason & Hamlin, Baldwin Concert grands, Bechstein, and other top quality brands.) 

All upright piano hammers are Ronsen unless Renner Hammers are specified.  Ronsen made the original hammers for most of the fine quality vintage American pianos. 

Renner Hammers are used on all grand restorations unless otherwise specified. 

All piano treble strings are Roslau top quality, best tone, German piano wire. 

All bass strings are from Mapes Piano String who made and still make the original strings on many of the finest quality pianos.  

All leathers used in any player system or pipe organ are chrome tanned to enable them to resist deterioration from our polluted air.  We expect chrome tanned leathers to last 30 - 50 years or more. 

We use Hairsheep, elk, goat, and kangaroo.  You, the customer, may specify Kangaroo for an extra fee.

Felts are highest quality wool.

Bellows cloth, pneumatic cloth and all rubberized cloth is from Felix Trading in Australia, and made from top quality high thread count muslin and canvas with natural gum rubber bonded to stay airtight for 30 years.

Tracker bar tubing is specially made to our own specifications which are better quality than those available from most regular player piano suppliers.

All standard pre cut gaskets are specially cut for us using our own dies.

Special dies are made for cutting each new set of player valves we encounter.

We may change our supply sources as we constantly re-evaluate our supplies for consistent quality control. 

Other parts are specially made for us as well. 

We try to purchase in bulk in order to keep our costs as low as possible.

If you think a good technician is expensive, just try a bad one.
