An Antique Steinway, Completely Refurbished — 90 Minutes from Home, Worth Every Bit

I recently returned to Roger's after a great buying experience there two years ago. I was looking for a very special instrument as an early retirement gift to myself. I tried out 10+ different pianos and brands at four different shops.

The completely refurbished antique Steinway that I bought at Roger's is the piano of my dreams. Incredibly beautiful, with the most perfect new German action parts, highly responsive, with a robust, beautiful sound — at a fair price and with an excellent full-value trade-in for my two-year-old Kawai.

After the first three months, Roger and Carol came themselves to my home (90 minutes away) where it was lovingly and conscientiously tuned — in addition to some expert work to perfect a minor issue with the voicing of a couple of hammers.

Addendum: more than three months later, the piano sounds as good as the day it was tuned! A testament to the quality of the tuning as well as the quality of the piano. I enjoy playing it more each day.
