John Tye B.Sc., C.Eng.

Piano Tuner

for the Northampton area

			I was trained at Newark and Sherwood College - a 3-year practical course in tuning and repair. My previous life was as a design engineer. I have been a piano owner and player for more than 40 years. I am insured against breaking your Ming valse. Pianos rarely need just tuning; they usually need some adjustment or preventative maintenance. Simple work of this nature I simply do as part of the tuning, because I simply enjoy it. More serious repairs are of course chargeable, and range from jobs that can be done on the customer's site, such as individual string replacement, to complete renovations. I do not tackle complete renovations, because I consider it to be impractical for one person.
