When I finish with it, it will behave.Ĭome on guys! A bad piano IS a bad piano. As I wrote earlier on this post, I'm passionate about pianos and would never compromise because the piano is a piece of junk. It can take two hours to tune it but it will be 100% of its capabilities. Why? Because I will work harder on the bad piano to make it sound at its best.
Stay away from them I would tell them.Īnd guest what? Will I invest the same amount of work on a bad piano has on a good one? No. I never suggested any clients of mine to purchase one. So, Kimball is one of the worst piano ever. Thank god, Yamaha bought it (Bosendörfer) recently. The hammer rail completely split in half and cost the college $1000CAD in the 80s to fix! Must I give note to this community that Kimball's relation with Bosendörfer was because Kimball bought Bosendörfer because they where in a bad situation. Even one vienese edition I had to service for a music college was a "real" joke. In my 35 years experience, I have yet to find a "decent" Kimball.
What is wrong? The piano or the technicians? This case should be unanimous. I find it so strange so many piano technicians have so much different opinions on Kimball pianos. No need to hate any piano, (I keep in mind that the piano is part of the family of the customer, it helps) but we have all our own limits.īut I have some strange feelings about some new pianos made here as for others made far from here, indeed ! (and I think for miself " they have bulls. Lot of bang, and I guess thats what some customers are after on your market (as the Essex pianos or Baldwin studios) Not much "finesse" (heavily loaded soundboard and hard hammers) but the scaling was not that bad probably.
Very clear tone, sounding at first as a can full of nails, but in the end while too little low partials and density for my liking, I understood the kind of tone it had, was really Ok for some Jazz or church playing and not so difficult to tune than I expected. I have very bad premisces about those spinets, but was surprized to find one which had a good enough tone recently
There is a good way to avoid unwanted tunings which is to ask when the last one have been done.
