Since 1980 — New England
New England's Destination
for Rebuilt Steinway Excellence.
For over 40 years, a trusted source for fine pianos — specializing in the rebuilding and restoration of vintage Steinway & Sons instruments.
Our Story
More than a showroom.
A full-service piano center.
Founded in 1980 by master technician Roger Shaffer, Roger's Piano quickly earned a reputation for meticulous Steinway rebuilding and deep technical expertise. What began as a singular commitment to craftsmanship has grown into New England's most trusted destination for fine pianos.
That tradition continues today. Partner Carol Wu brings pianistic insight and exceptional customer care — guiding customers to instruments that best match their musical needs and long-term goals.
Today, Roger's Piano operates two showrooms and provides comprehensive services: tuning, maintenance, full restorations, player-piano system installations, and a rental program for those beginning their musical journey.
