How much I made in a day as a piano tuner

Imposter syndrome…I know all about that. Thoughtful people learning a professional skill go through this…but the more skill you develop, the feeling will go away…it’s just part of the process….I’m glad you mentioned this! Aloha!

If you do that for a living, 200 $ for professionally tuning a piano sounds absolutely fair to me. I mean, how often does this have to be done? Once in 10 years?

it's a long story, but helpful in understanding the billing issues. I consider myself pretty handy, and many years ago we had a washing machine that would barely dribble out the hot water. The common cause of this is a clogged screen right where the water hose goes into the washing machine. I disconnected the hose, found the screen and pulled it out. Sure enough, it was loaded up with calcium. Very common issue with the hot water connection. I cleaned up the calcium, put it back together, and tested the machine. The hot water still dribbled out, with very little improvement. At that point I thought it had to be the pump. I got a new pump from the appliance supply store and installed it. The hot water still just dribbled out. The only thing left would have been the internal hoses, a real problem to deal with in this particular machine. But I got those hoses out, along with all connected fittings and found they were all completely clear. At that point, I threw my hands up and called an appliance repairman. He showed up, and immediately went to the hot water connection, and pulled out the screen that I had cleaned already. I had told him what I had already done, so I was a little surprised that he was doing that, but thankfully, I kept my mouth shut. He commented that I had cleaned it up pretty well. He then stuck his little finger in the same fitting and pulled out a second identical screen which was completely crusted and clogged. He replaced that screen, and the machine filled fine. He told me that this maker put two screens in this model, because they had engineered the fitting too deep, and with one screen (which is also the washer) the connection would leak. When he gave me the bill for $70, his company's minimum, but still a lot of money 40 years ago, he sensed my disappointment at paying him that much money for 3 minutes' work, he said "Just remember, you're paying me for what I know, not what I do." ..... So just remember, there aren't many people who can tune a piano, and you put a lot of time in your training (50 free tunings! plus your experience learning to play.) And you're cheaper than the guy we use. Keep up the good work!

7:04 Difficult, but very enjoyable. I was recently given my friend's old Jansen piano that he didn't use. It turned out to have a LOT of problems. Like bunches of keys stuck together, keys that did nothing when pressed, keys that didn't move, mouse damage, water damage, insanely out of tune, etc. basically the worse piano possible. But, I ended up completely repairing it in a few days, and it was SO MUCH FUN. I learnt so much new things, I learnt how to repair certain problems, disassemble the action, etc. But most importantly I learnt how to tune the piano, so I would never need to pay to get it repaired or tuned. It was such an upgrade from the terrible keyboard I once played on, which had stiff/ hard to press keys, for some reason small keys, making it very annoying to play. But I'm so glad I was able to fix the piano myself. Actually, you probably had some sort of role in it, by helping me figure out some type of way I had to do to fix the piano, just from watching your shorts and remembering some things from them. Thank you.

Enjoyed your video brother. I tuned our church piano a while back and really enjoyed it. It took me like 3-4 tries to actually get it right but once I finally finished it it was rewarding to hear.

[@pianotekgeek]

I was a concert piano technician for over 40 years prepping instruments for the most demanding world known performing artists. We learned tuning by ear and collected so many years of experience in voicing, rebuilding etc. the "old" school to develop the feeling and skills needed. Sadly the Personal " human " feeling and warmth into a tuning goes mainly lost in working with electronic tuning devices. However, keep up the good work, it's a long and difficult way.

Hey! I’ve binged watched all of your videos and I’m hooked- can’t wait for more!🎹🪛

[@QuantumDivergence]

I've been playing piano for close to 20 years now, as well as guitar and many other string instruments. I recently began working at a school with several pianos and I have always been ULTRA sensitive to pitch and tuning . I just realized i was BORN to do this. Your videos have truly inspired me to take this journey. I'll be shadowing the school's professional tuner for awhile until I am confident enough, and i think this will be my new lifelong passion. Do you feel that you lose the love for playing piano after tuning for so long? For me, an out of tune string sometimes completely turns me off from playing. It is almost painful.

[@PianoDoctor]

Dude! That’s so exciting. That’s literally why I make videos, is to inspire people like you… so glad I could help you find something you’re passionate about. Every once in a while, if I sit down at a piano that is pretty far out of tune, I have a hard time enjoying playing it because all I think about is the tuning, but overall I still do enjoy playing

[@bretmaples]

The school piano made me say Ewww when I heard how far out of tune it was. I'm a guitarist, but my mom plays piano. I've always wanted to learn how to play and learn how to tune them. I enjoy and appreciate your videos.

[@robbicu]

The Steinway has the wrong logo on the fallboard for a Duo-Art of that era. Nice piano, likely an AR from around 1923. Steinway records will show that the piano was sold to Aeolian. Aeolian then added the player components. Whomever refinished the piano likely gutted the player, which is too bad. A Duo-Art can sound fantastic, and reproduce exactly the playing of artists such as George Gershwin. The Duo-Art components do not effect the sound or playing of an instrument in any way, so if you run across one with the player unit intact, recommend that the owner have it restored, or leave it for the next owner.

[@scootermacarthy5990]

I’m intrigued with your method of tuning. I was trained to set equal temperament then go down the bass then go up the treble notes stretching the registers as one goes up. So tune the treble to the bass. Tuner is used only in the middle notes. Thanks for sharing. I never did it full time as my skills were needed on band instrument repair.

I rarely read much anymore as I can usually play improvisationaly what I hear. One thing I hear Eg. with the new string was the difference being BFO. Beat Frequency Oscillation. It is amazingly sensitive and accurate. I just find what you do fascinating. Im old and retired and not looking for a career. Ha ha. But it would be a good one. I am still very active playing music.

In about 1981 I sat an exam in freshman Physics where they asked "How many piano tuners are there in the USA"? Of course we had no idea. Some of us students left it blank and got zero points. Turns out it was called a "Fermi Problem" where you are supposed to make educated guesses about all the variables to arrive at something of a valid estimate - how many households are there in the USA, what percentage have pianos, what percentage of those are actually tuned, how often must one tune a piano, how many pianos can a tuner do in a week, etc. Crank the numbers and you supposedly get a reasonable value that is good enough for many purposes.

Awesome video!! I really enjoyed watching. I’ve been tuning on and off sounds 1998. In very fussy so I give myself a hard time lol. What I found is the piano goes out and changes slightly as I go through it. I do a fast tuning then another pass fine tuning. This is essentially the way to go as I see you do that too! Excellent! I use the app on my iPad called PianoMeter. Is really fantastic and I can tune right up to the top C! Tuning test unisons up there are hard!! But I tune each string separately and they are fine. I notice that I can get on some strings + or - 2-5 cents and it’s in tune, which is great. Of course pianos are never perfect. What we do makes a HUGE difference to every piano we tune! I’m flabbergasted at the condition of many pianos I had seen over the years. Keep up the great work!!

[@BenMBass]

Often there'll be a local/national piano tuner union that you can get a license from, but that's not required to start tuning pianos or even to be a professional tuner- main reason to get licensed is so you can take a higher rate of pay and also some high prestige concert halls etc will want to use a certified tuner so they know their piano will be perfect when some famous pianist shows up to play a concert. Plenty of tuners make good money without being licensed by tuner unions however, so it's nothing to worry about, a lot of customers aren't going to be interested in paying extra for a certified tuner anyways

[@MidwestPiano]

@@BenMBass @durangodave The only certification that I'm aware of is from the national Piano Technicians Guild (PTG). There is a series of 3 tests to receive Registered Piano Technician designation (RPT). Tests are the Written Exam (history and knowledge), Technical (applied vertical and grand regulation / repairs), and Tuning (Aural tuning and tuning stability). These tests have to be passed by at least 80%. It will take anywhere from 2 to 5 years to have enough experience and skills to pass successfully in a single try.

[@zackeryhardy9504]

Not too difficult right now. There are a lot of people retiring and we need more people in the trade. 40 years ago competition was steep, but now there are not enough tuners. In my local chapter we tend to share clients and a good portion of my business has been from referrals from other piano tuners who have full schedules. Now it takes a while to build up the client list and it will take you some time to develop the skills in the first place, but its a rewarding trade full of good people who only wish to share knowledge to the next generation. I would recommend contacting the Piano Technicians guild as they can refer you to where you can find your local chapter where you can meat someone who you an apprentice under. Some areas have more tuners than others so its best to check. There are also some schools such as North bennet street in boston, a university in florida and a program down in the university of huston.

[@Serperior-Deoxys]

I've been watching all your videos, catching up cuz I just found your channel after mentioning to my mom that our piano needed tuning. (The phones are listening) Anywho, after spending almost an hour online, looking at Baldwin Acrosonic models, I've noticed something strange. Ours has a unique music sheet music stand. I know it's a model from the 50s or 60s, but I can't find a counterpart for it. Also, this'll probably give ya a conniption but she's only been tuned twice in her lifetime. The most recent was in 97 when my mom had her tuned. I can say, she definitely needs it. Sad part, both the tuners in our area, they seem to be a bit shady at best... I dunno if others are just unlisted though. If you know anyone in The Woodlands, Tx area, I could use a hand here.
