Piano Tuning That Suits Local Conditions
Coastal climates like Coffs Harbour can make piano tuning a challenge—humidity shifts, salt air and seasonal changes all impact pitch. That’s why this service is tailored not just to your instrument, but also to where and how it lives.
Expect a hands-on approach: each tuning begins with a full pitch check, followed by careful adjustments using both traditional methods and digital tools. The tuning curve is set with the ear in mind, ensuring stretch tuning is balanced across octaves. Keys are tested for responsiveness, tone is adjusted for evenness, and the action is checked for small issues that might impact your sound.
What sets this service apart is attention to detail—Tony takes the time to get things right, not just fast. The result? A piano that plays more evenly, holds its tuning longer and feels like it’s meant to be played. That’s why so many Coffs Harbour homes, schools and studios call on him.
Do I need to tune my piano if I don’t play it often?
Yes—even unused pianos should be tuned at least once a year. That’s because the wooden frame and metal strings are sensitive to changes in humidity and temperature.
Leaving a piano untuned for too long can allow pitch to drift too far, making it harder (and more costly) to correct later. Regular tuning also helps preserve the instrument’s structure and value.
What does a piano tuner actually do?
A tuner adjusts the tension of each piano string to ensure the correct pitch across all notes. This involves listening carefully to beats and overtones, adjusting the strings using a tuning lever and checking intervals for balance.
A good tuner also spots minor mechanical issues, assesses the action and often provides insight into your piano’s overall health.
Will tuning fix all issues with my piano?
No—tuning only affects pitch. If your piano has problems with key action, pedal responsiveness or inconsistent tone, you may need additional services like regulation or voicing.
Tuning is one part of a broader maintenance routine that keeps your piano playing smoothly. A qualified technician can tell you if further work is needed during the tuning appointment.
Can I tune my piano myself with an app?
Apps may be able to detect pitch, but tuning a piano correctly requires specialised tools and experience. Each adjustment affects multiple strings and can create more issues if not done properly.
Tuning also involves understanding how to stretch pitch naturally across the piano’s range. DIY attempts often result in instability or damage—best to leave it to a pro.
