I used Jacobsen Transfer to move my Knabe 6'4" mahogany grand piano out of my house to a piano…read morere-builder. They had to bring it down an outside double stairway, one stairway very narrow and steep. I have moved this piano three times before, both in New York City and then across the country. I last brought it into my house thirty years ago, and I know the weight and difficulty first hand as the original movers back then showed up with only two men. I had to assemble some neighbors to assist and bring it up the same stairs into the house. There were five of us, all untrained, yet we somehow made it. This time, Jacobsen correctly had the five men as needed, as well as the proper tools and clearly the experience to ensure the safe descent. It was like watching a well choreographed team as they worked together with singular guidance to bring it down to street level without a hitch. If I ever bring in another piano, I know who I'll call on again. Also note that we had to reschedule the job a few times due to wet weather, but they would not risk the move unless they could ensure a safe environment as well as having enough men for the job. While some lighter pianos could be moved with fewer hands, they well knew the size and weight of my piano required five and wouldn't attempt without, nor would they add any risk that might be caused by inclement weather; exactly the right protocols. Hats off to a great company and the team, and much thanks to all.

Very careful and professional. They took great care with my piano. Would hire them again!read more

Elizabeth was referred to me by my daughter's school band teacher. For that I am thankful,…read moreespecially since the daughter has been improving steadily under her tutelage. She teaches violin, viola, and piano, but her specialty is the violin. She is encouraging but does not hesitate to point out mistakes or areas that need improvement. But she does so in a way that does not foster lower self-esteem or discouragement. Elizabeth also tries to accommodate schedules, which is really great. I highly recommend Contra Costa School of Music if you are looking for music lessons.

She was thoughtful, super patient, and genuinely kid-friendly throughout the whole process--and she also worked with us to get a great price.

She's patient, encouraging, and great at keeping lessons engaging for such a young kid. Highly recommend both for buying a piano and for lessons.

I was helped by a tall young salesman named Chris (i think) who was knowledgeable about the keyboards letting me know the differences between them. I appreciated not feeling rushed or hustled and was given however much time I needed. He answered all my questions well and politely. I had inquired to another store about their keyboards but they never got back to me so I placed an order with San Ramon Piano instead through their website when I got home. They were prompt and I had immediate customer service helping me out. Within a week my keyboard arrived as they said (and they offered to let me borrow another ES120 till it arrived!) The delivery men were professional, friendly and set it all up for me. It looks perfect in my home and all my expectations were met. Definitely pleased with San Ramon piano!
