Enjoy your stay!. Our main aim is customer education on pianos (for example, selecting a good piano for yourself, how the piano works, what to look out for in an old piano, servicing the piano and how not to get ripped off.).
Do browse our webpage, which will describe our various products, services and education facilities, described in detail of course; Lots of text so make sure you stare at the greenery outside your window as recommended after reading this for a substantial amount of time! :).
You may not splurge on an expensive high end european piano, but buying any kind of piano is still a sum of money by the thousands and it is of utmost importance that we as a team, help you select the best piano that will suit your needs, likes, and budget.
Here at Asia Piano, we offer an alternative kind of customer service. A great advantage of doing this is that we can concentrate more on the needs of the customer.

Services
Every piano has its own unique sound. One might be described as 'glassy' another as 'warm'. One might have a 'full singing' tone, and yet another sounds 'thin.' Although the original design establishes the basic character of your piano's tone, your technician can modify it to better suit your taste or restore its original tone if it has deteriorated with age. The process of modifying a piano's tone is called voicing. Does my piano need voicing? Your piano may benefit from voicing if: You don't like the sound your piano makes even after it has been tuned. Tone varies radically from note to note. You cannot achieve a range of tone (mellow to bright)
Maintaining Your Piano
Voicing your piano
Tuning is the adjustment of the tension of all of your piano's 250 or so strings to the correct pitch or frequency. This ensures that notes played in a musical interval (octaves, chords, etc.) will sound in harmony and to ensure that the piano's beautiful tone lasts just as long as you do. The majority of pianos go haywire and deteriorate primarily because they have not been maintained at the proper pitch for a long period of time. It pays to take note that if your piano doesn't sound bad, it still requires tuning, in the similar way a vehicle functioning perfectly needs it's regular service maintanence. Remember, your piano is made entirely of wood and metal, and in order for these two drastically different materials to work together, they need to be in balance with each other. Keeping your piano at concert pitch (A=440hertz) ensures that the tension of the the strings (often totalling several hundered tonnes!) bearing down on your piano's giant iron frame and soundboard are more or less equal over the years, therefore prolonging it's life. Rates are $60-$80 for uprights depending on it's size and complexity and $120 for grands. It is recommended that you try your piano out BEFORE the tuner has left in case there are corrections that need to be done.
