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 LOVE our new piano! Jay was wonderful & quickly delivered the piano with no trouble at all. He checked the tuning & even played us a little Billy Joel. Highly recommend Pianos for Humanity & we look forward to loving our piano for years to come. Thank you, Jay!

  • Our experience with Jay was excellent! I reached out to him, and he immediately responded with pictures of various pianos to choose from within my budget and preferences. He delivered the piano the next day, fully tuned and cleaned, along with a bench and some sheet music. He even played a song for me and my kids! He was lovely to work with, and I highly recommend doing business with him. Totally worth it and we've really enjoyed the piano!

  • If you're looking for an affordable piano or piano services, look no further. Jay is an absolute delight to work with – reliable, responsive, knowledgable, the pianos are top quality, and you won't find better prices in the area. I purchased a 1912 Steinway upright which Jay had personally restored to impeccable condition, including repairing all mechanical issues & a new paint job / wooden decal that just look incredible (seriously, check out the photo). I am absolutely blown away by the sound, touch, and feel of this 100 year old piano, it's one of the best pianos I've ever played.

  • 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.
