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.

Jay really has a great thing going! There are lots of pianos on many different listings, but Jay takes the gamble out of finding a good one for a reasonable price. He knows his pianos and makes sure he delivers one in good working condition.

We highly recommend Jay, he deserves more than 5 stars. He had a great selection of spinets and helped us pick the perfect one for our family. He was very responsive answering questions every time I called. He was extremely reliable delivering as promised, just in time for Christmas, even on the coldest day of the year in sub-zero temps and snow covered roads! When my novice pianist is ready to upgrade to the next level of piano I will be making my first call to Jay for sure! Thanks Jay, for letting me give my daughter the surprise of a lifetime!

Piano delivered in tune and in great condition; they cleaned it out and all the internal stuff was in good shape. Fair price and nice people!

Jay delivered our 100yr old upright grand piano yesterday, it is gorgeous! Then he delighted us all as he entertained us with some songs, he's so much fun! I'm grateful we found Jay. We had been looking for a piano for a while and each was either too $$$ or not in good shape. Jay is doing a great service by saving these pianos. He cleans and tunes each one. He has extensive knowledge about pianos and is willing to share all he knows. He took great care and time to explain everything to me so I could select the perfect instrument for our family. He does all this to share his love for the piano and get more pianos into homes. We could not be happier! Thank you Jay, the experience was unforgettable! We'll treasure our piano forever!

The most fun you could ever have moving a piano! We found a great piano but no way to get it, so I called all around to find general movers, piano movers, anything but it was all outrageous and all they did was haul it for us at some point in the next few weeks. So I stumbled across Jay's company, Pianos for Humanity. He sells pianos so I called to ask if we could pay him to move one. Well, yes, how about tomorrow? Jay is so much more than a piano mover or seller though! He coordinated and picked up the piano from the previous owner without any trouble to us then brought it to us when we were home and then the real fun began! For less than the other quotes I got from just movers Jay took apart and dusted the back and inside of the piano, then cleaned and polished up and reassembled the piano flawlessly, explaining the different parts. Once that was done he rolled it easily into the house and he tuned it for us! I guess I expected piano tuning to be repetitive and uninteresting but it was surprisingly fun, and then he played several really fun tunes for the kids and now little sister wants to play the piano too! So he moved, cleaned, spruced up, tuned, and then played the piano for us all for a lot less than the movers and especially the piano movers would charge. When we decided to get a piano I expected it would be like pulling teeth, hard and painful and always taking longer than you can stand. Instead we all had a blast and got a beautiful antique upright piano tuned, played, and placed right in our home where we wanted it within about a day of finding the piano we wanted. He handled everything and was so much more flexible and personable than the alternatives. Jay truly is the piano man.
