I purchased a 1884 ebony Model A Steinway Grand piano in Oct 2022 for $13,500 from the owner,…read moreDennis of DC Pianos in Berkely. My complaint is about the warranty and the lack of response and concern from the owner, Dennis to honor the terms of the warranty. This piano came with a 5yr warranty. I have in writing in a text by the owner that the warranty covers parts that are broken, need repair or replacement including parts and labor. The warranty does not include tuning or maintenance. Since I've had the piano I've put in 2 claims for reimbursement prepared by my previous piano tuner. One claim on 2/9/23 for $400 to lubricate whippens, and Jack repairs on C1 &C2. Second claim on 5/9/23 for $60 to lubercate Jack G6 and adjust C5. A total of $460 in the last 3 years. In December 2024 I finally had new hammers, hammerhanks, whippens, a complete action regulation, and a tone regulation of new hammers done to the piano. Why? Because those parts I mentioned were never replaced. They were the originals. It's a known fact that old worn parts as the ones I mentioned can be a significant loss of musical potential and the Pianos ability be a pleasure to play. My piano sounded in correct and the consequences were significant Here are examples: 1) Their was a loss of tone. The piano had a muffled and very harsh sound. The piano was not producing rich and clear tones. 2) The piano was very difficult to play. The worn actions made it difficult to control the Pianos touch response.The keys were constantly sticking, the notes were difficult to repeat, and piano sounded dead. 3) The last two years and 8 months I've had this piano I've noticed the pianos sound and structure deteriorating. An example : tinny, buzzing, and rattling sounds, keys do not return properly, and cracks in the sound board are most likely than not to be caused from worn parts. I complained in texts sent to the owner and his son the problems I was having with the piano. I was spending a significant amount of time, energy and money paying piano tuners including the owners son to tune my piano with no lasting effect. The old parts that I finally had replaced were the culprit bc now that I had this work done my piano sounds alive, beautiful, and the rich clear sound is magical. I had the work done by a professional piano specialist bc the owner of DC piano and son were unresponsive to my requests to have my piano fixed. I paid $7,800 to have new hammers, hammer shanks, and flanges, new whippens, complete action regulation, tone regulation of new hammers, fine tuning, and new key bushings. I spoke to the owner this afternoon to cover this under the warranty and he refused with a million excuses why not. I told both the son and father the issues I was experiencing with this piano and I was ignored. I believed from the first moment I played this piano at DC Pianos that it had potential and with a little TLC ithe piano would not be like new, but it would have a 2nd chance to shine and sound beautiful. My intention has always been to take care of this piano and with no help or support from DC Pianos I've achieved that.
