“Raise Your Frequency Piano Tuning”

Looking for a piano tuner near the Appleton area in Northeast Wisconsin?

Try Pam’s Bee Sharp Tuning. She is better than me and it would take me years to get as good as she is.

However, if you are looking for a mediocre tuner with some experience, congratulations! You found me!

I have been tuning pianos since 2017. Most of the more recent pianos I have tuned are not nearly as bad as the first ones I tuned. This is a nuanced skill to master! There is a learning curve that it took me a while to figure out. I mean, did you know that you have to account for the twist in the stainless steel pin to make sure that it doesn’t just unwind and render it out of tune in a month or so? Some tuners don’t know that! I met one tuner who said, “Oh who cares about that? Just have it in tune and get out the door quick.”

I care… Too much! And this is probably why this isn’t the job for me. I adopt your piano into my heart and worry about my little babies. It consumes my life. How is that piano doing? I wonder. Is it holding it’s tune? I hope they followed my advice and put it on an inside wall away from direct sunlight and heating vents. I hope the customer, my new friends, are satisfied and enjoying a beautiful sounding instrument. I wonder what song they are learning or writing or working on now? Did they take my advice on the few songs I suggested?

I think I’m supposed to be a pastor. I would rather care about people than pianos.

Price: I have historically undervalued my own value in the past and inadvertently chosen a life of poverty (Something I am trying to work on) and therefore don’t know what to charge. Make me an offer! (If you offer less than what you’d pay getting brakes fixed on your car from your Uncle George, then I’m not your guy.)

Just going to be honest… I don’t like to pitch raise pianos to the standard 440 Hz. This is hours of work tinkering. My specialty lies in finding where your piano is stable and tuning it to that. Who needs 440 Hz anyway? Unless you do. I did come across a video in my daily scroll through Youtube shorts about a conspiracy theory that 440 Hz was chosen by enemies of humanity to obfuscate our spirits with dissonance to make us more easy to control. They say that 432 Hz is more harmonious with the human spirit… Well, it could be true? Couldn’t it? Well, I wasn’t going to take any chances so I tuned my piano to 432 Hz… So I should probably change the name of my “company” to “Lower Your Frequency Piano Tuning”.

But who wants to go to all the trouble with ordering new business cards, right?

I do believe in raising your frequency of your human (or alien) spirit into God’s love. AND, I wrote some epic blogs on that subject!

Care Tips for your Piano:

It’s advisable to keep your piano out of direct sunlight, on an interior (not exterior) wall away from heating vents. Getting it tuned about once a year is recommended. Because of humidity and temperature fluctuations (especially in Wisconsin) the wood of the piano swells and shrinks through the seasons causing the tension on the strings to vary. I have noticed pianos I have tuned register at an average of 4 hertz difference or more in winter versus summer.

And now for some random visual evidence that I have tuned a piano or two:
