Easy To Use Piano Tuning Tools And Tips

By Stephanie West


Pianos are delicate instruments that can easily get out of tune. This would cause chaotic singing because levelers, the choir or band will be misled. Piano tuning must therefore form part of your daily routine. It is the sensitive and professional nature of this exercise that presents a challenge to many people. Here is a guide that should give you a perfectly sounding musical instrument.

Determine the tools you are going to use to tune the instrument. Each instrument is unique and requires very specific attention. For instance, a violin will require a different tuner from saxophone or guitar. The procedure used will also differ on the instrument in question. Ensure that you are using the right tools in order to get the best results.

The internet will provide a guide on how to tune your piano. In fact, there is information on how you should approach different instruments. Purchase the guide and its tools to get them delivered to your doorstep. Manufacturers and professional pianists also make recommendations on the best tools to use. Follow their guidance and you will have the best experience. They also help you get reasonable prices.

A tuning lever will do a great job on your piano. It may also be referred to as a wrench, key or hammer. The price of wrench or hammers depends on the quality you get. There is a professional option with such labels as apprentice, student or craftsman, among others. This will cost you approximately fifty dollars. It will serve you well by ensuring that your instrument is perfectly tuned.

You must use the right tip size as you tune the piano. Whether the pin will be tight or loose will depend on the kind of lever you use. If the tip is too small, the pin is grabbed higher and therefore becomes tighter. If the tip is too wide, it will grab the pin lower, making it to feel loose. When you are not sure, it is advisable that you choose the standard European model.

A chromatic tuner will help you to tune any instrument. With a chromatic tuner, your pitch will not be too flat or too sharp. This is an investment you have to make. The tuner must be indicated for pianos. Guitars have different tuners. Using the wrong tuner means that you will get the wrong tone. Since this is a long term investment, you might have to spend between 500 and 1000 dollars.

There are applications and software you can use to tune any musical instrument. Some are free and hosted on different musical websites. There are apps that you have to buy because of the features they offer. The price of apps is lower compared to the chromatic tuners. You have to spend three hundred dollars for the software.

Carry your instrument to a dealership or accredited store. Such stores and accredited dealers will always have the right equipment and software. You also have trained technicians who can handle the work. Using accredited dealers and technicians is a guarantee for quality service. It also helps you to maintain the warranty on an instrument.
