Action Regulation Key Rebushing Key Recovering

Action Regulation A piano with an action that is in need of regulation can be compared to running in a race while wearing oversized galoshes. The heart of the performer may be willing but the execution is severely hampered.   The various parts of the action must be adjusted to harmonious relationships to minimize friction and maximize responsiveness. Overall, there are over a thousand adjustments made to an action to get it to play at its best potential.  We go over every aspect and make any necessary replacement or repair of parts.  Whenever new parts are installed, action regulation is also required to get the instrument to perform at its best for the performer.  It is exciting to see our customers when they sit down to their newly regulated action and experience a new and improved touch in their piano. Key Rebushing Over time, keys will develop "side play" from worn out felt bushings in the keys. We will remove the old worn out bushings and replace them with custom fit bushings to allow your keys to move freely in only the desired direction.  We will also make any needed repairs to the key buttons. Key Recovering The Keyboard is a focal point of your piano. If your ivory or plastic keys are missing, cracked or chipped then it takes away from the beauty of your piano.  The Piano Shoppe offers services for both recovering natural keys with new keytops or if you prefer, we can repair and replace existing ivory keytops.
