Introduction

I have 48 years experience in the field of piano technology having worked in every aspect from manufacturing to concert tuning. After tuning for Nashville recording studios, concerts & universities for 25 years, I returned to my home state of Alabama in 2021. My primary concern has always been customer service. From beginning pianist to concert pianist, you will receive the same quality of work & respect from me. I am happy to be serving Central Alabama

Larry is the most respectful, honest hard working person. He was very attentive to our needs and quickly found problems with our piano we did not know we had. Mr Mitchell went to work on the problem and quickly resolved the issues we had, then tuned it. Our piano hasn’t sounded this good since it was new. I highly recommend Mr Mitchell to anyone looking for highly trained piano tuner/mechanic. He’s number 1 next to anybody in the business.

Larry was wonderful! He even educated me on a few things regarding pianos as I am very new to learning. Will continue to use him for future tuning.

Larry arrived precisely on time, and completed the tuning of our badly out-of-tune piano in about an hour. He worked very efficiently, and the piano now sounds great! Will definitely call on him in the future, and we highly recommend him!

Larry was amazing. He was punctual, professional, and did an amazing job tuning my baby grand. He spent a bit more time educating me on how to properly manage and care for the piano. I couldn’t have imagined a better experience. I’ll definitely be using him again for future tunings.
