I received my initial training at the MacPhail School of Music. I have been tuning and rebuilding pianos for over 40 years in the Twin Cities. I SUSPENDED MY PIANO TUNING AND REPAIR SERVICES ON MABECAUSE OF THE CORONA VIRUS. In my spare time I restore antique motorcycles, go RVing, and pet beautiful but ungrateful cats.I tune and repair pianos in and around the Twin Cities metro area and suburbs. I also perform on guitar with Latin/Acoustic Fusion act Trio Tipo. I do piano bar as a single or in a dueling act currently with River Rats dueling pianos. Visit for more info on the Piano Life Saver system.Ĭheck my performance page for local performances. It's what I call an inexpensive insurance policy for your expensive piano. It permits tunings to hold better and longer and prevents damage to piano parts from humidity changes in the environment. The Piano Life Saver is a piano humidity control system. I am also a factory-certified Dampp-chaser Piano Life Saver system installer. So if you have a piano or player piano of any type, I'm your guy! I also own several older player pianos with pneumatic (air powered) player systems and, with the retirement of Don Barton, have taken over the Barton Player Piano Company's tuning and field service. As a Yamaha Disklavier technician I've come to know the layouts of the electronic player systems and how to calibrate, optimize and repair them. As a piano sales associate I've come to know the details of construction between the different manufacturers in the piano business, and the pros and cons of their designs. From spinets to nine-foot concert grands, I've tuned it. As a piano tech for a major piano dealer, I have had the experience of tuning literally thousands of pianos of all types, makes and sizes.
