Welcome to MJF Piano Service!

Hello, I am Matt Fargen, owner of MJF Piano Service. Starting business officially the third quarter 2021, we are welcoming appointments for your Holiday tuning and beyond. Our shop is a small business, designed the way piano tuners have practiced their craft for generations.

Since you have found this site, you most likely have an acoustic piano, and it does need periodic maintenance and tuning. The older the piano, the more potential maintenance that may be required. On a basic service call I will find out your concerns about the piano, discuss standard vs other types of tuning (temperament), and I will inspect the piano, perform cleaning and minor repairs and adjustments during the visit.

Experience, training and credentials

Before beginning MJF Piano Service and scheduling client services, I made the committment to obtain extensive training and experience to obtain the top qualifications for a tuner. I successfully completed the course work for certification with Piano Technician Institute earlier this year. However, many services would require additional specialized skills. Through my association with the Piano Technician's Guild chapter in Louisville, I have come to know a number of advanced technicians I will refer for such things as complete hammer replacement, replacing multiple or all strings (when necessary), and restoration of the case or a complete piano restoration. Based on my inspection of your piano and an itemized list of recommendations, an estimate for the cost of additional service can be provided for your consideration prior to starting any necessary repairs.

My active membership in the Piano Technician Guild (PTG) is your assurance of ethical and honest piano tuning and service. Testing of technicians' abilities may result in the title of "Registered Piano Technician," and within the next 12 months I will have had the opportunity to reach this important professional goal.

Fees and Discounts

To help fulfill our goal of increased acoustic piano playing and enjoyment in Louisville, KY area, the following discounts are available: student, educator, and frequent client service discount.

Student and Educator discounts

If the piano is used by a student working with a teacher in regular classes of instruction, this discount can apply. 30% of the regular cost of piano tuning is deducted from fee charged. The same discount is offered for qualified piano teachers for their personal and studio pianos, limit of 2.

Frequent client service discount

A piano may require more frequent service for a number of reasons. If you have not had the piano tuned in over 1 year, if your piano has above average age or wear, or for other reasons it may require 4 or more tunings per year for satisfactory performance. The same discount offered to students and piano educators, 30% off the regular fee, applies for this discount. Limit of 2 times per year, discount beginning on the 3rd tuning within a 12 month period.

Fees

Our fees are established based on the time, necessary training, and travel involved in home piano tuning. We will give further details about our fees at the time of your telephone call, and additional questions are welcome at that time.

Thank you for visiting our website, and return often for additional posts with information on resources for pianists, space rental for recital performances, and piano rental. We look forward to doing business with you!
