Bass strings with windings on them have to be duplicated by sending in the old broken strings and having them specially made. Stings in the mid and top sections without windings can be replace the day I come. However, your description of the piano leads me to believe it is not worth the cost, but of course I cannot say that for sure without seeing the piano. Gina,

Do you have any recommendations of who to purchase from? The piano we currently have was handed down from my wife's aunt who taught lessons on it. We have been told it is quite old but needed the "guts" completely replaced (a couple thousand dollars.Ouch!) I want to make this a surprise purchase for my wife but I don't want to be the one who gets a surprise after we have someone come and tune it. Any suggestions of what to be looking for or at when purchasing a used piano? Chuck,

Pete Eye lived close to me for years and tuned my piano every year. It's been 2 years now since he's been here, due to poor health. The piano was moved recently because of renovation and is now back in place. How much do you charge for tuning a small upright Wurlitzer?
