This is so I know it’s fully working before I return it. In most cases I have the rest of the piano so I can test your board after I’ve worked on it. I know Technics pianos and ensembles very well and can tell you which circuit board I need you to send. Removing a circuit board isn’t that difficult.

It will always be cheaper if you bring or send your repair to me.įor many Technics pianos and ensembles you only need to remove and send me a circuit board by post. Strange that in Famous Five Band we’ll play almost anywhere! London? No thanks!Ĭome to think of it … it’s “no thanks” to most places.

I’m now very picky about where I go – e.g.

This is a shame but it’s no fun any more with our ridiculous speed limits and being held up by drivers who seem to be scared to exceed 30mph in a 40 limit etc. Consequently I hardly ever go out to do repairs in people’s homes. This means there is even less chance of sharing travelling costs. To save people money I’ve tended to encourage them to bring their repair to me. As a result there is very little chance of sharing travelling costs. Things are much more reliable now so there are far fewer repairs. Even the top section of most home digital pianos can be lifted into a car by two people.

These days nearly all the things I get asked to repair are portable enough to be brought to me. Organ repairs have become a thing of the past as most organs have been thrown away. I used to enjoy all the driving and it was very sociable doing repairs in people’s homes. It was often possible to get several jobs in one area and this meant the travelling costs could be shared. In the old days when home organs were so popular I went all over the place – all the South including the Isle of Wight, all of London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Somerset, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and even Lincolnshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, The Midlands, Devon, Staffordshire, South Wales and North Wales! All the repairs were in people’s homes or in the shops I’ve worked for. Most shops don’t do repairs and just want to sell you something.ĪREAS COVERED … almost none! – but I do Technics piano repairs world wide by post! Don’t be put off when a shop says Technics can’t be repaired. I’m very good at fixing Technics pianos and ensembles.

Yamaha – some pianos, some keyboards but no synths or organs. Roland – some pianos, some keyboards but no synths or organs. Technics – many of their pianos and ensembles (see separate page for Technics), some keyboards, FDD units (floppy disc/disk drives) but NOT Technics organs. So from now on I’m not going to be calling back about things I don’t repair. The idea is that you don’t waste your time calling about things I don’t do, and I don’t waste my time calling you back to tell you this! So I have started only taking calls on a Monday and making a list of things I don’t repair. Many enquiries are about types of product for which I have never been a repairer. Some days I was getting 30 or 40 messages and there just isn’t time to reply to all of these. Sometimes … I just forget to plug in my phone – not deliberately! if on holiday or if too busy to take on any new work. You can ring me between certain times most Mondays – see Contact pageĪ Monday Bank Holiday is a holiday for me too, so please ring the following week Hopefully you will then look at this website to see what I don’t repair and don’t do. Also I want you to hear the answerphone message. So most of the time I work with the phone unplugged. I can get on with repairs much better if I don’t keep stopping to answer the phone. Why do you nearly always get my answerphone?

Generally far too many years spent dealing with you mad musicians (it takes one to know one!) Over 25 years experience … well, that’s all I’m admitting to. I’m based near Guildford in Surrey and have done this for bloomin’ ages!
