    Why place hours of operation on website and door if you aren't actually going to be open?…read more It's poor customer service!

    Please, please, please beware of this company!…read more They store EVERY credit card you use (even over the phone cards, cards used in the store, and one time payments) and will charge random amounts throughout the month. I had 2 cards on file (one that I used for the initial purchase in store and one I was using for monthly payments over the phone) and both cards were charged different amounts throughout the month multiple times. When I spoke with a supervisor I was told there was a system error that occurred that charged my card different amounts. When I asked to remove my card due to system error, I was told they cannot remove cards that have been used for purchases from their files due to auditing purposes and that they have the right to charge them if a payment fails per my contract. My payment didn't fail, it went through, and they proceeded to charge my second card on file for the same amount! When you set up your account they tell you that you will have online access to view your account and billing information, but that is not true. I started renting from Music and Arts in July and still have been unable to access my online account to view my payments and it's December. When I spoke to a supervisor to get a statement to provide to my bank since I was charged fraudulently, I was told that their online system is experiencing issues and it is not currently working. The only way to view your statements is to call and have a representative email them to you. Every time I've called, I've been on hold for at least 30 minutes (sometimes longer). The representatives don't have the ability to remedy billing situations so you have to speak to a supervisor, but there is no way to directly reach a supervisor or be transferred. You have to request a call back and wait for them to call you. The statement I received from Music and Arts doesn't show the extra charges that are on my bank statement. I've seen on other reviews that others have experienced the same issue so I know I am not alone. I am now forced to cancel both cards on file with my banks to ensure they don't constantly get charged in the future. I have also reached out to my son's school to let them know to be leery referring parents to this company in the future and asked for alternative companies I can rent from who are more transparent.

    I do not recommend Brandon. He came to me when I was looking for piano tuner on Dec. 2025, I…read morehad already booked one with another technician for the next day which was Christmas Eve for $185 but then timing was not working out well and he said he could come that day at 5 p.m. I agreed to that time. When I asked his price, He did not give me a price over the phone. Instead, hearing my player piano play over the phone while we talked, he said, "It sounds like you might need a bigger service - that would be for $385." I didn't agree with that diagnosis but I allowed him to come for that price to get my tuning done .- knowing he was $200 over the average price. The only price he quoted to me was the $385 without mentioning any other service.He came , sat down and did his thing without any commentary about my piano. After two hours he was finished and I I gave him my card for payment. However, he appears to be frustrated that the card did not process quickly and he left with my understanding that a receipt. would come in shortly which didn't happen. When I got my credit card statement, I saw he had charged me $709. without giving me a receipt at the time - saying his phone was too slow at processing it and he left. I protested the charge with Citi but he fought it with a bogus invoice or receipt that had my name at the top that he sent as his document, But... it had never been presented to me. He had never given that information to me. or explained anything about my piano. He just did his thing and took my card for payment but never showed me a balance because he said he couldn't get it finalized. I never got an invoice or receipt. This copy from Citi was the first I had seen of his prices - he had only quoted oe price to me verbally and I accepted that as his only price to come oit. I never agreed to a bigger service but maybe he didn't want to undertand that. I did accept the amount of $385 as it was the only price he had given me for my service. That was my complaint and the issue of my case. He then made up a bogus document that looked ;ike a receipt with my name at the top showing his charges and sent it to Citi. - forms documentation but it never was sent to me. The was the complaint. I never authorized the" bigger service" and never wanted or requested anything but a simple tuning. and he never made any comments as I expected about my piano. when he just did his own thing at the piano, About a week after he left., it was noticed that the tuning was not in tune. I reported it to him and he said sometimes it can change. I then had another technician come out and check it and they confirmed that it was not in tune. IT WAS NOT IN TUNE. He returned for his flashlight he had forgotten and HE TESTED THE TUNING, and confirmed that it was off. HE DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY OR SUPPLIES TO FIX IT, SO.. I agreed TO GO WITH HIM AND PAID THE $40 for the supplies he needed to fix it. The issue is that he is unprofessional and untrustworthy. I wanted the amount of the overage he charge reversed. I also felt that he took advantage of me - an 80 year old woman - to upsell me on a service that I did not understand and he never tried to explain to me or demonstrate a need for. Yet he charged my card for three services - one that was never mentioned, which totaled $324.00 over and above the amount I had authorized to be charged. He was angry when I disputed the $324 extra charge and threatened me because of it .

    TL;DR: Paid $1,450 for piano repairs, got ghosted for nearly two months, and only got my piano back…read moreafter involving the police. I'm writing this review to warn others about a deeply troubling experience with Brandon Lewis, owner of Perfect Pitch Piano. After years of routine piano tuning without issue, I hired Brandon in April 2025 to refurbish the keyboard action of our Boston Grand Piano. He quoted $1,450 for the job, took the keyboard to his workshop, and accepted a deposit. Brandon picked up the piano action on May 12, 2025, and promised to return it by May 16. What followed was a string of missed appointments, broken promises, and excuses ranging from medical issues to weather delays. Despite paying the full balance, the refurbished keyboard was never returned. Communication became sporadic and evasive, and attempts to resolve the issue were met with silence or further delays. After weeks of trying to recover the keyboard, I had no choice but to file a police report. In researching Brandon further, I discovered multiple prior reviews from other customers describing similar fraudulent behavior. I strongly recommend reviewing recent feedback from other clients on his Yelp page, where similar complaints--including one involving a Steinway piano action--suggest a troubling pattern, not an isolated incident. The detective assigned to the case attempted to contact Brandon multiple times using all the phone numbers on file, but received no response. It wasn't until the detective left a message stating that charges would be pressed and an arrest warrant issued that Brandon finally returned the call. After much back and forth, Brandon agreed to return the piano action. He claimed he had been hospitalized, that his phone was stolen, and that Apple took an extended time to restore his credentials--hence his lack of communication. Ultimately, Brandon returned the piano action on July 7, 2025--nearly two months after the original promised delivery date. Please do your due diligence and consider alternative providers. What began as a routine service turned into a time consuming and frustrating ordeal.
