  • I jst bought a new artmann grand piano and all the hammers are locked.. In other words , the keys jst dont move even an inch.. how do i unlock it.. this is my first piano and i;ve got no clue wat so ever ...

  • I just took the action out of my piano, you wouldn't believe the junk in there (but no spoons or straws) lol I was surprised to feel how heavy the action is...

  • Looks like the bench needs a little more tuning than the piano lol

  • Thank you very much Sir,....... This is really informative........

  • That's very informative but my piano needs more than tuning. It needs restoration which is for the brave and the informed.

  • @deemilieu I'm not an expert, but yes, you can. Pianos are not THAT delicate, especially older ones made from the wood that doesn't exist anymore.

  • I was wondering.. I noticed that this is a grand piano or whatever, not an upright..

    Soooo like will this also work for an upright piano?

  • But why are there so many spoons in there ?!

  • Do you think it would be possible to take the entire key frame out of an old piano and replace it with a full size keboard, making it an electric grand?

  • does an expert know...can you put a grand piano into a climate controlled mini storage unit safely, storing it up on its side?
