Rescuing an old English upright piano from being thrown away. I tackle the problems on a budget. A moving company had this piano in their storage facility and was marked for disposal but dropped it off to my place. The piano was generally in good condition but it needed new key tops and a good service and clean. Key Words... Beginner piano. Fixing an old piano. Free piano. Buying an old piano. ...

I rescue an old Yamaha piano from a primary school. The piano was beaten up and two keys were not working. I take toe piano to my workshop and bring the piano back to life by repairing the faults and giving the case a new paint job. I sprayed the case with satin black spray paint and tuned the piano and now it is ready for a new home.

I save this old out of tune upright piano from being thrown away

Rescuing an old German upright piano from disposal which hasn't been tuned for nearly 20 years! I tackle the problems on a budget. A fellow dealer had this piano in his van and was on his way to the tip but dropped it off to my place. The piano was very out of tune so I tuned the piano back up to concert pitch. Piano tuning, string repair and removing a mouse nest were the main issues. Key Word...

Thank you so much for the video. It was heart warming to see this brought back to life
THANK YOU for breathing new life into this worn and forgotten old friend!!! I can only imagine the countless hours of happiness, joy, and satisfaction that this piano will bring to the new owners!!! I also wanted to personally THANK YOU for taking the time to play the piano so that we can all hear the beauty, charm, warmth, and true personality that is unique to every piano!!! GREAT JOB!!! BRAVO SIR, BRAVO!!!!❤️❤️🙏🙏😊😊👍👍
Great work. You can use "Big Boy" two-part car body flexi filler from Toolstation to quickly remedy the scratches and dings. 👍
Gram na bardzo podobnym instrumencie na codzienne Romhildt weimar 1925r 130 cm.Posiada przepiekne przmienie fortepianu.
un trabajo muy bien hecho, yo quiero ser su alumno!
I love the music you've put in the video. I know it's a lot of extra work but it's beautiful and I hope you keep doing that.
What a beauty (the piano as well as this channel)
Wouldn’t using a strobe tuner like a Petersen make it easier?
THE PIANO IS MY WHOLE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
If I’d have a u1 I’d replace the Yamaha hammers with Abels for better sound.
i was expecting some deadmau5 piano cover
Fantastic work - Would have been a tragedy for this piano to end up at the tip - Great to see this piano being given a new lease of life.
The tuner has the joy of playing a piano when it has the "Bloom" on it which only last for a week or so
No shop vac in your shop? They make quick work of mouse houses .... and stuff. Maybe hire a boy. "Oh Mouse Boy!!"
Just out of interest, why are you spacing the hammers with the action out of the piano? surely it's better to space the hammers with the action in so you can make sure they are hitting all 3 strings?
As there were only a few out of alignment, it didn't matter. When it comes to tuning it I can re address it, turns out they were all fine. On my previous video (school piano Rescue), I took all the hammers out to fix the loop cords so realigned them whilst in the piano.
I’ve never really encountered a Welmar I didn’t like.
I most certainly have! they're not all good
The first Welmar I obtained was a school piano which has safety castors on it. I think it was 4th or 5th piano collection so was still learning. Anyway, I attended the school, full of confidence and started to lift the piano in order to get on its end. Didn't realize how heavy it was and half way through lifting it, almost giving myself a hernia, the castors (which were installed incorrectly too close to the edge of the piano) were still on the floor and the piano slipped away from me. I couldn't stop it in time and it crashed into the wall leaving a massive dent in the plaster/sheetrock! Fortunately for me, the teacher was only concerned for my wellbeing and wasn't bothered about the hole. 😳

Great video! That is an absolutely incredible price considering all the work you put in, do not undersell your expertise!
Can you give me advice just today I got a free Baldwin acrosonic spinet piano, going to fix it up. I didn’t look much to see what will need to be done from what I looked it just needs a good cleaning and tuning, but when I pressed down a couple of the keys on the piano it doesn't come up, I'm thinking it might be due to dirt or objects stuck underneath it, im not sure
@@Joyfulkeysinstrumental-lu5ri hey, firstly try a hair dryer or heat gun. Most of the time, sluggish keys have a bit of damp which need to be cleared. Blast the area for a few mins repeatedly pressing the keys. If that doesn't work, determine whether the key is sluggish or the action. Get your finger under the wippen and lift and see whether or not the hammer returns normally. If it does, it's the key. Wippen/hammer. Take them out and test them for stiffness. If stiff on the joint, you'll need to remove the flange pins and install smaller ones. You can buy sets of flange pins for a few dollars from alibaba. You'll also need a pin extractor and flush cut cutters. If it's the key, remove and squish the balance rail felt (top middle) and the felt under the key. There is a special tool for this also. You can also use a small round file and clean out the hole under the middle of the key that sits on the balance rail and clean the pin with metal polish or wd40 if it's already clean. That should solve any sluggish behaviour. Howard piano industries have created videos for both of these issues. Good luck! Andy
Can you give me advice i just got a free Baldwin acrosonic spinet piano, and I'm going to restore it i didn't look much to see what all it needs i know most of the keys when I press down don't come up right away sometimes not at all
That little tune would have given Billy Joel a great laugh!
But can you tuna fish?
@@PointyTailofSatan I don't like to, too many scales 🙄
all the action action happens in the middle octaves .most sound ok high anf low.when I choose I try the centre octaves most
I always love to see a new video from you! That quick tune you played at 30:58 and said "name that tune" - it sounds so familiar but I can't name it... is it from Dune?
Chariots of fire 😃
Learning so much from your videos - thank you !
Nice to hear, thank you!
Nice video. That's going to be a lovely piano for someone!
Is better than my Piano
i always find it quite enchanting that mice make homes in pianos, its like something out of an old cartoon
Most people who play the piano can't tear them apart, restore, and tune them! Very interesting to watch someone who literally knows the instrument inside and out restore, and at the end demonstrate how well the instrument sounds! Loved the E.T score!
17:35 How did you get the 'YAMAHA' lettering back on after painting it black? Did you tape them off before painting, paint them back on, or use stickers? Looks awesome!
Amazing stuff to watch! Such brilliantly made instruments. I wouldn't know where to begin taking one of those apart, and putting it back together. Sounds great at the end! RIP 🐁
What a beautiful upright. The black upright my mom got me to learn on took two visits by the tuner as it was so far out. Why would you throw away that beauty because of a dead mouse? You don’t burn your house down if theres a mouse in it. Neat video. It sounds great.
cool, what were the songs you played between 19:50 and 20:00?

Magnificent work! Brilliant instrument♥️
Great content! I am an apprentice tuner. The piano sounds great. Thank you from Brooklyn, NY
You are a multidisciplinary piano doctor. The recovery process of the old piano brings me happiness..Thank you♥️
You inspired me to start maintaining my piano myself :)
I've heard of some piano techs using Super Glue to tighten up loose pinblocks. "Doping", I've heard it called. What's your opinion on that?
Piano lessons are expensive, as are new pianos. It's great to see this stately instrument getting a new lease on life.
Thank you for your video.
I would really like to see you address the Balance Rail punchings and then the Front Rail punchings and how you measure the associated distances, choose the correct thickness of the various paper punchings and set each one correctly throughout. I have a 1916 upright that I just restrung and replaced the hammers. But now I have to regulate the rest of the piano and getting the balance rail and the front rail "just SO" is very important for key dip. This seems a very long and complicated process involving a great deal of measuring in thousands of an inch across the complete key bed. Id love to see how its done.
My piano hasn’t been tuned in 30 years and it sounded fine after it got a good tuning
Oh my curiosity is mega sincerely particularly how old what distinct exact year this piano is how old it is thus the condition of the heart of this piano ITS PIN BLOCK....???? I'm blessed with a Newby and Evans NY from December 188 five . ugh eighteen eighty five lap top has defective numbers row......so this / my beloved piano being 139 years old no where near sour out of tune/ playable...."HOW LONG CAN THE HEART OF A PIANO LAST: ITS TUNING BLOCK PLEASE????!!!!!
It is worth it to get an old piano, tune it, and repair it yourself, or get a piano technician out.
great restoration! quick question, are you in churton park wellington?
It sounds beautiful
Are wood borers the same as termites?
Great Job.
