CLICK HERE for a list of piano repair tools that I supply for the course, for a fee. The list may not be up to date, but is 98% accurate. I choose tools to be effective and economical. They are the best choice for small repairs where one of two keys need fixing. For extra tools that make multiple repairs easier, see this list. Scroll down to “Optional Repair Tools”.

Our website goes down daily at 5 PM eastern for 5 minutes for maintenance.
