NoteWorthy Pianos, LLC is a piano tuning, repair, and servicing business serving the Middle Tennessee area. The company is owned and operated by Ryan Hacker, who provides tuning, regulation, cleaning, repairs, and humidity-control services for upright and grand pianos. Hacker describes himself as having over a decade of experience as a musician with hundreds of pianos tuned and serviced, and states: “Your piano is important! I want to ensure your piano is in excellent condition because I understand how a well-kept instrument can impact your life.” The business uses a combination of aural technique and advanced software when working on instruments.
Services
NoteWorthy Pianos offers several tuning options. Pitch correction tuning is listed at $218.68 ($240 with tax), standard or annual tuning at $159.45 ($175 with tax), and biannual tuning at $145.79 ($160 with tax).
Piano action regulation addresses wear inside the instrument. The company explains that “wooden parts inside the action shift and their felt pads compress; this causes the piano to feel sluggish and unresponsive,” and notes that regulation is typically needed every two to five years or every 200 to 300 playing hours. Grand piano regulation is listed at $450 and upright piano regulation at $230, with both varying based on the degree of wear.
Cleaning and repair services include a quick external cleaning at $25, a deep cleaning at $160, and grand piano soundboard cleaning at $70. General repairs are billed at $95 per hour plus parts. The company also offers a piano evaluation for $50, which it notes is non-taxable in Tennessee, and it installs the Piano Life Saver system by Dampp-Chaser for humidity control, with variable pricing. Action and key refurbishment is available on a contact-for-pricing basis.
The published price list lets prospective customers see costs for the most common services before booking, covering routine maintenance such as annual and biannual tuning as well as larger jobs like regulation and refurbishment. The humidity-control installation is aimed at protecting an instrument from the swings in temperature and moisture that can affect tuning stability and the condition of wooden parts over time.
