Other services include professional in-home tuning, cleaning, repairs large and small, action regulation, appraisals and evaluations for potential buyers and sellers, full or partial rebuilding including soundboard and pin block repair or replacement, re-stringing and refinishing. We are currently the only licensed business within New York City that performs the patented balancing work known as a Precision TouchDesignв„ў, which pairs the weight of each piano hammer to the weight of the key, calibrating each note similar to a balance scale. In addition to our showroom of fully rebuilt and refurbished pianos, we focus on piano action rebuilding, most notably the high-end balancing and calibration work pioneered by David Stanwood, RPT. Mike and Brian also work together with the sales and service of vintage electric pianos, mainly models produced by Fender Rhodes and Wurlitzer. Other tuner/technicians currently helping out at Big Wrench Piano Care are Bert Jantsch, RPT,В Isaac Namias, and Mike Nelson. In late 2011, Big Wrench opened a piano sales showroom and repair/rebuilding shop on the popular Smith Street in Brooklyn, and has since relocated to a bigger facility on the corner of Hoyt and Degraw Streets. Early influences include established tuner/technicians Steve Drasche and the late Gene Manfrini experience in the local Piano Technician's Guild has led to association with esteemed technicians Daniel Levitan RPT, and Mike Miccio RPT, and soundboard guru and old world master craftsman, Marco DeLellis. Beginning in the Twin Cities of Minnesota at Steinway & Sons retail giant Schmitt Music and moving to Brooklyn in 2001, Brian has worked with several of the finest piano rebuilders and tuners in New York City. At its core is Brian Whiton, Registered Piano Technician (RPT). Founded in Brooklyn, New York in 2002, Big Wrench Piano Care is a small, craft-oriented piano sales, tuning and repair service catering to the needs of piano owners and musicians on every scale.
