The Fletcher and Newman catalogue is of particular interest as it is quite sought after as the company has ceased printing a hard copy of their stock and relies solely on their website to display their range.

Pianos rely on the physics of harmonics. No hang on. Sorry. Let’s start again. Pianos don’t rely on the physics of harmonics. Yes that’s better.

Pianos are funny old things. There I said it…they are. They just seem to fall on the wrong side of the digital divide.

The old ones are the best 😂
Today’s patient was a Bell overstrung piano circa 1930 in the New Tredegar area. The piano hadn’t been tuned in many years, probably well over a decade. The pitch was raised significantly with a first pass tuning and then the instrument was fine tuned with a second pass. Turned out pretty well for an old piano that hadn’t been corrected for such a long time. Happy customer, happy technician! 😊👍😎💪🎹 #pianotuner #pianotuning #PianoTuningandrepair #Piano #pianomusic #pianotunersofinstagram
Good to know that people still want to play or have their kids play the piano. Sales this month have been great with four so far and counting…All our pre-loved pianos are checked, regulated, serviced and tuned to concert pitch and come with free delivery and free used piano stool. We take the aggro out of buying and installing a pre-loved acoustic piano 💪😎🎹
Yesterday morning was spent tuning and fettling the Petrof grand piano at Abergavenny Borough Theatre, in preparation for the Noriko Ogawa piano recital last night. The program entitled “The Romantic piano” included works by Ravel, Debussy and Beethoven. Hope it went well. 💪😎🎹
Had a rather exacting customer recently. This young lady and her parents had visited the showroom having prepared a tick list of requirements that had to be fulfilled before buying a rather nice Yamaha C110A. Thankfully…we passed the test with a full set of ticks…Phew! 😂😎💪🎹 Our stock can be viewed here: https://www.finetunepiano.co.uk/pianos
Lovely afternoon down in Cardiff this afternoon. A Boston grand, made by Steinway, admittedly the budget model, but oh man you would never have known it. What a lovely piano. 6’5” of absolute loveliness with the most charismatic of owners who is an absolute gem of a man. I had a ball! I didn’t want to leave after doing my usual little “recital”! Man I loved this piano! OMG! I think I’ve got the best job in the world!😂😎👍💪👊
One of the Doctors at Ysbyty Aneurin Bevan in Ebbw Vale rang us to tune a piano on the Ebbw ward last week. It was a nice gesture as a gift to the patients up there on the ward. I turned up and quite frankly the instrument belonged in a skip! 😂 So we switched it for another better piano…thought it was the least we could do. Back to tune it next week and hopefully the Ebbw ward will be a little more musical than it was before!

Nice afternoon spent at King Henry VIII school in Abergavenny tuning their beautiful Yamaha C7 Boudoir grand. Six foot seven of loveliness situated in the theatre hall, tuned in preparation for the Music/Drama department’s production of Bernstein’s West side story running next week. We don’t just tune grands! If you want your piano brought back to its best then get in touch at: https://www.finetunepiano.co.uk Best of luck to all those involved at the school. 🎹😎👍💪
Tuned a truly wonderful Bluthner boudoir yesterday in Llandovery. A Bluthner patent action with a gorgeous light touch and an Aliquot system (a fourth string on each trichord that is not struck but resonates in sympathy with the note played). A re-polyestered case and a fully restored action, plate and strings made for a truly amazing and beautiful instrument. We tune any piano with the same love and care that went into this one.

Johann Sebastian Bach”s handwritten personal copy of his Mass in B minor, held by the Berlin State Library, and added to UNESCO”s Memory of the World Register. The Mass in B minor (completed in 1749) is widely regarded as one of the supreme achievements of classical music
Tuned the PETROF boudoir grand at the Abergavenny Borough Theatre on Monday in preparation for Llyr Williams’ concert on Tuesday evening...they have a lovely piano in there and a great acoustic for smaller concerts. The program was: MOZART - Fantasy K.475 MOZART - Sonata K.457 BRAHMS -2 Rhapsodies Op.79 DEBUSSU - Images book 1, RAVEL - Valses nobles et sentimentales, LISZT - - Valse de l’opera Faust Hope it went well!
