Sunshine Ray is a charismatic and talented musician. He has some background in childhood education…read moreas well. He is very popular with children. He charges $30 dollars for a 30 minute piano lesson in his home studio. All good. But this cannot be a good review because of his obnoxious and rude business practices. He will cancel at the last minute (more than once). Also, although he is a self employed piano teacher, he expects to receive PTO for his "vacation " days. Yes, if he remembers to cancel with proper notice, he expects to be paid for a lesson...that he...cancels....Just putting this out there to parents who might be considering this immature man as a potential piano teacher.

I am so happy that she did! She is absolutely amazing! My son isn't just learning how to play...She is giving him a full on experience that includes the history of music. She sits with him and provides so much feedback. He practices all the time because he wants to get everything just right for her. I don't want to post too many pictures as this studio is in her home, but it is a very professional set up. There are multiple pianos in one room with lots of seating for parents to be comfortable while they wait. She has charts and boards and loads of books for students to use. She is excellent at keeping the kids on task and makes the most of the time she has with them. We're super grateful to have her work with our son and would happily recommend her to anyone that is looking for serious piano lessons.

Help was offered as…read moresoon as I walked in the door and the employee immediately got to work after quickly diagnosing the issue. He told me it wouldn't be perfect since it is a very affordable bass and that I could purchase a full set up, but that it'd probably be a better investment to put that cost toward an instrument upgrade down the line instead. After a few minutes of adjustments, I was offered a cable to hook up to one of the in store amps to try it out. SO much of an improvement! I wasn't even charged for the service. I wanted to look at gig bags afterward but noticed they seemed to all be in an employee only area. A staff member almost immediately noticed me and showed me their options. When I said I'd do some more shopping around and would keep theirs in mind, there was absolutely 0 pressure to try to make a sale. The customer service was fantastic and felt very genuine--no pushing to make a sale or upsell something I didn't really need. Especially as a beginner who wouldn't necessarily know better, it's so valuable to feel like the person helping you actually cares about your best interest as opposed to just making a sale. Super happy with my experience and I'll definitely be back in the future for any of my musical needs!

Symphony No. 2: Trading in my piano…read more I had purchased a 1930's Knabe grand from Portland Piano in 2012. It's served me well, but totally needs to be rebuilt, and I don't want to spend my cash on that. On top of that, I've downsized via divorce and it's been in storage for about a year. All this time, I'm reviewing pianos and all of my options. I'm an old-school, classically-trained pianist. In the past, I have never been impressed with digital pianos. But knowing my footprint and not wanting to annoy the neighbors, I'm thinking I need to have a silencer in place. The after-market products that you can put on an acoustic is one thing, but after having gone down from a grand piano to an upright footprint, I'm not really crazy about getting "an upright." So I look into Kawai Novus 10S and compare it with the Yamaha AvantGrand N1X. These are upright sized digital pianos with a very real feel and sound to them. Look up the technology if you're interested, it's prettt cool. I can't really figure out why the Kawai is 8k more. Both are stunning in terms of action, feel and audio quality. Both feel like their brand... Kawai is warm and yielding, Yamaha is more quick and bright. Both have great tone. Some people love one over the other, but to me, they are comparable in touch and sound quality. I don't see 8k more worth of it in the Kawai. Also. Take a look at the case on the Kawai vs Yamaha. Yamaha has a much more clean, sleek look. Kawai just looks...heavy...visually. Of course, Portland Piano is willing to take my piano as trade in and sell me the Novus. They aren't Yamaha dealers. When I am telling the salesperson I really wanted to get into a Yamaha N1X, it was a better price, they had a few choices... lower the price on the Kawai to make it worth my business, or... not. Salesperson pinged me to tell me about a hot Clavinova they got in on consignment. Obviously she doesn't know her pianos very well, if a customer is looking for something like a 10S or N1X, and they call all pushy about a Clavinova. Portland Piano did not do much of anything to retain me as a customer, so I called over to Classic Pianos. Not only did I not get the runaround, they offered me a trade-in, sight unseen, along with a swift purchase over the phone. When the salesperson said it might take a bit because they have to ship it in, imagine my happiness when they called just a few days later to schedule delivery. Delivery went well, and I love my new piano. I hope it's this easy again with my next trade-in. Thanks, Taylor and team!
