The baby grand piano now has a ‘humidifier/de-humidifier’
attached underneath. This
Musical
instrument and piece of furniture has to be maintained at a constant average
moisture
of about 45%.
This allows the piano keep a minimal expansion / contraction
of wood and metal and makes tuning less frequent and will prolong the ‘life’ of the instrument. This was suggested by musicians and piano re-builder John Brower who did the installation. Any questions you may have about pianos from maintenance to value and selling should be directed to John at his shop in Great Meadows. Jbpianos@aol.com
