Apparently Yamaha Piano Company occasionally gives away their pianos for a charitable cause.
“On March 12, 2004, the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Metro St. Louis – supported by the generous assistance of Yamaha Cares, an employee-based, charitable giving initiative of Yamaha Corporation of America – presented Wish Teen Sarah, of Cobden, IL, with her dream piano – a Yamaha Disklavier.”
I tune many Yamaha pianos and generally find them to be consistent and reasonable instruments to tune.

Hi Everyone! I will be writing about a range of topics that I believe are pertinent to this subject. Whether you have a piano in your living room, nightclub, classroom, auditorium or church, you might find some of things I discuss on my blog to be surprising, mundane or unbelievable or maybe a little bit of both. I hope that you leave with something, even if it is only a little tidbit.
In About Us, I will tell you a little more about myself, my back ground and motivation for writing about all of this stuff. All piano owners need continuing Education, and so do piano tuners for that matter.
In Myths, I will point you to some common misconceptions and fantasies that people have about their pianos and tuning. Aesthetics has everything to do with piano tuning but I will discuss one of the most misunderstood, unknown by most subjects – historical tunings and I don’t think it will put you to sleep.
And then there is the question of Technology. Tuning technology has a profound effect on technicians (tuners) and tunees (those of you who have your pianos tuned.)
So…..stay ??? tuned…Ouch!
