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 was really fantastic! He spent a lot of time working to get our beast in tune, and in the end the results were great. He is a nice guy, and I would highly recommend him!

  • 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!

  • Jay from Pianos for Humanity clearly loves what he does. I've been thinking about getting a piano for months and then saw one that he had restored and tuned and he offers delivery for free. He is very responsive and clearly takes pride in his work. In these times where we are self-distancing for an unknown length of time, it's very uplifting to be able to have music in our house. Thank you Jay.

  • 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 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.
