    Had a small repair. Figured I'd have to leave it, but it was fixed immediately, and at a very reasonable price. Great place to do business!

My Experience: I found DC&D through Roland's website as a certified repair shop, and I called them to see if I needed an appointment. The receptionist was very friendly and told me to bring in the keyboard whenever I was in the neighborhood. I dropped off the keyboard and described the problem to the receptionist, and she took down notes and told me she would call once the technician diagnosed the problem. Within a couple days, I received a phone call from her asking me to come in. When I returned to the store, the technician met with me and informed me of the embarrassing reason for the sound issues. Apparently through my move, the Roland power supply had been swapped with another power supply that uses the same plug but has a different voltage output. I was using the wrong power supply without my knowledge. He said that he checked things out and that no damage had been done to the circuit board. When I went to pay the receptionist, she and the technician refused my money. I explained that I felt responsible to pay them for their time diagnosing the issue, but they wouldn't accept my money. I left happy to know that honest merchants are still around, although I still wish they let me pay. Concluding Opinion: If you require the service of a piano shop, I highly recommend giving DC&D your business. We need businesses like this around, and if they were so generous and understanding with me, I can only imagine that they treat paying customers the same way. I only wish I knew more people with pianos so that I could personally help them get more business.

It was in decent condition originally, but needed total refinishing on the outside and a good chunk of work on the inside. Joe and his team coordinated moving it across states and did a phenomenal job restoring this family heirloom. We couldn't be more happy with how it turned out and would recommend Illos Piano to anyone that asks!

    This review is only for Illos' piano moving service--I'm sure that they do other things well, but…read morecan't speak to that. I had been looking for months to find a pump organ in Buffalo and when I did needed someone to pick it up and take it to my apartment in North Park. Illos took all my info by phone (type and size of instrument, stairs, entrances, etc.) and then gave me a quote that was a hundred bucks cheaper than anyone else I spoke with. Come moving day, they were at the pickup location right at the beginning of the scheduled window, had it loaded up before I even realized they were there, glued some damage that they hadn't caused in order to stabilize a part, and then met me back at my apartment. There, they assessed the three possible ways in, got the organ up a half flight of stairs without having to take the railing off, loaded her onto a dolly, and had her where I wanted within minutes. I am so glad that I paid pros instead of trying to move a heavy, fragile, 140-year-old musical instrument myself. Booking, communication, and service were all excellent. And I got this.

Their movers (the owner and his son) arrived on time and came fully prepared with furniture pads and the necessary tools to transport all my furniture (even being prepared and easily able to transport an oversized couch down over an exterior balcony when it would not fit through the stairs)! They were courteous and clearly experienced and took time to ensure none of my belongings were damaged during the move and that they were securely packed in their truck for transport. For some of my items that needed to be placed into storage, they helped me organize everything "Tetris" style to the point where I was able to use a smaller storage unit than originally expected. The savings from using a smaller unit alone will likely pay for the entire cost of using movers over the next few months! All in all, I was extremely impressed with my experience with B&F and look forward to using them for my next move (whenever that may be).

As a non-smoker, non-drinker, I remember those decades, and what a music store meant for musicians. I became good friends with Al, the father and original owner of Thorold Music. It's not the same today, technology and the economy taking society away from live bands, but I see Thorold Music as finding a nice balance to keep the love alive, enough to make me leave my home town of Welland to make it there. I also respect Leo, one of Als' sons who manages the store, as a keyboard player, and every employee there has shown a mature and talented ability on guitar. I wouldn't necessarily say "Woohoo! As good as it gets!", because when I'm not there the light of Jimi Hendrix, who I saw in Toronto, doesn't shine as bright... and... sometimes it takes a lefty to show you the left-handed world. The new millennium is in my brain, lately these signals, they don't feel the same. It's not very funny, the music that people want to buy, 'scuse me, while I diss these skies. Thank you again, Leo, Conrad and staff at Thorold Music, for your kind and generous treatment. as always, John Watt

It was badly out of tune because of a major issue with the straps that control all the hammers for the 88 keys had rotted and fallen off! There was also a crack 8n 5he sound board. The major components of the player part were in really good condition. We decided that the piano held many cherished family memories and proceeded with the repairs. It took several long 8 hour sessions along with our assistance for the job to be completed. The entire piano was taken apart to access the hammers and sound board. We left plenty of time between sessions for us to refinish all the wood while it was apart. We could not be happier with the finished results! It sounds awesome thanks to Carl and looks good too after all our hard work refinishing along with tips from Carl. He has been back twice to tune and we will hav3 him back yearly to keep the piano in shape. I highly recommend Carl for tuning, repairs and he also gives music lessons. Not only does he provide awesome service but he is a very remarkable person!

That's also, for what it is worth, been my experience at Music City Buffalo. I went in there originally for voice and guitar lessons after getting frustrated with my lack of progress on my own. The lessons--particularly voice lessons with Carina, store owner Vince Mastrantonio's partner--were helpful, and built a relationship that made me trust them enough to buy instruments (people in the business can be kind of shady, and so this is important to me). Vince will work with you (within reason, of course) on prices, and I've now picked up three guitars from MCB. (If you are a Gretsch fan, there is hardly a reason to go anyplace else.) I've also had my upright bass set up there, picked up a used amp, have another guitar repair planned, and will be back for guitar lessons with Vince--an accomplished guitarist himself, which is always a bonus in a teacher--likely this summer. I've always been happy with the turnover, the pricing on purchases and repairs, and the quality of the work. We've also taken to seeing their three-piece jazz-noir band, Carina and the Six-string Preacher, around town. They're cool people who like engaging with the crowd, and I think that's a good way to sum up Music City Buffalo as well.
