Main Difference between the Spinet and others

The hammers are the same size in ALL 4 piano styles.  The Spinet Piano keys will PULL up the hammers to strike the strings.  In the larger pianos, the keys will PUSH up the hammers to strike the strings.

Because the soundboard of a Spinet is the shortest of the piano family, the ‘hammer action’ is lowered to fit inside the piano and therefore the hammers need to be leveraged differently than they are in the larger brothers.

 

Notice, all the hammers are the same size, but it's where they are placed in relation to the size of the soundboard making the difference being the spinet keys PULL up the hammer action while the others PUSH up the action hammers.

  • We bought a rare antique Story and Clark piano/Lowry organ combination that Jay rescued and restored and couldn't be happier. Jay educated us about how the piano/organ works, how we can tune the organ, and offered his ongoing support should we need it. He even included a higher bench (due to an old shoulder injury) and delivered the piano almost two hours away. Communication, service, and knowledge were great from start to finish—plus Jay's just a whole lot of fun to be around.

  • Jay sold us a beautiful Wurlitzer for the right price and delivered it tuned. He came back and retuned it and gave us a nice show! Highly recommended.

  • Jay is extremely rude and hostile. We were looking into a piano for a friend's birthday, and all of our questions were answered with hostility and mockery. We simply wanted to know what his services were, what selection, and if he partnered with movers or tuners for his rescues. We loved the idea of buying a piano that was restored and unwanted in someone else's place. We love supporting local, but we will never buy here.

  • Pianos for Humanity is a top notch company. The owner is very passionate about pianos and only sells the best quality pianos at an affordable price. We had been looking for a piano for years and we were so blessed to find a piano of the quality for the price we purchased it at. We cannot recommend this company enough!

  • Very happy with my purchase! Don't waste your time looking all over Facebook for a used piano. Jay took all of the work out of buying a piano. He has a large selection of pianos to choose from. Also, he delivered our piano only a few days after buying it and for a very reasonable price.
