Our Signature 6-Point Quality Assurance
At All Keyed Up, we don’t just sell used pianos; we curate instruments for their next lifetime. Every piano in our showroom undergoes a rigorous Master Technician Inspection before it earns its place on our floor.
We begin with a deep-tissue exam of the piano’s “heart.” We inspect the soundboard for cracks, ensuring the crown is intact to provide the rich, resonant tone a piano is meant to produce.
A piano that won’t hold a tune is a liability. We measure the torque of the tuning pins to ensure the pinblock is healthy and capable of maintaining a precise A440 pitch through seasonal humidity changes.
We meticulously adjust the thousands of moving wooden and felt parts within the piano’s action. This ensures the “touch” is consistent across all 88 keys—from the lightest pianissimo to the most powerful fortissimo.
Our technicians “voice” the hammers, adjusting the density of the felt to ensure the piano doesn’t sound too bright or too muffled. We aim for a balanced, “singing” tone that is characteristic of the instrument’s original design.
Finally, the cabinet is cleaned, polished, and detailed. From the brass pedals to the fallboard logo, we ensure the piano looks as beautiful as it sounds, making it a centerpiece for your home.
Once we have the piano sounding its best, it is graded and priced. Photos are taken, the piano enters the online inventory, and is ready for sale.
Every piano we sell is backed by our exclusive 10-Year Guaranteed Serviceable Warranty. This means that if there is any structural issue that prevents the piano from staying in tune and/or performing as it was designed, we will cheerfully exchange the piano for another of the same price, at no cost to you.
