The value of a piano depends on so many variables that we can't give you a value over the internet. You need to have a technician look at the condition of the piano. The condition of the pinblock is crucial.

If it is in good shape and holds the tuning pins tightly the piano may have many years of life left. If the pinblock is bad and the tuning pins slip the piano may not be tunable and the repairs could easily be more expensive than the value of the piano.

This could mean that the piano is worth nearly nothing. Also local markets can be quite variable for used pianos. Finding a technician who knows the local market will give you a much better estimate of the value. Our searchable database of Registered Piano Technicians is available to help you find a technician near you. Registered Piano Technicians have passed a series of exams given by their peers to prove basic competency in tuning, action regulation, and repairs.

The Registered Technician page describes this in more detail. The Piano Technicians Guild is an organization of professional piano technicians. While we are not a school to teach beginners we provide lots of seminars about piano service.

These are listed on the coming events page. We also have compiled a list of training resources. These include residential schools, correspondence courses, and individual training. The Piano Technicians Guild does not endorse schools but we provide this list of them for your information.
