1. While
spinets may not have the best reputation for tone and action, at Ashly Piano Crafts
we give the same care to spinets as we do to a concert grand, knowing that these pianos will be
primarily used by beginners and must not deter their ability to progress.  Fluid playing action
and reliable tone are critical to developing one's touch and training one's ear, and a piano
that's easy to play and pleasant to hear will keep a student interested!

2. Find out what your purchase would include, such as
moving and tuning.  At Ashly Piano
Crafts, all of our posted prices include ground-floor delivery in Ventura County, as well as the
first in-home tuning.  If the price you're looking at doesn't include services like these, make sure
to figure them into your anticipated final cost.

The Piano Book
by Larry Fine
from pianobook.com:

A piano is one of the largest
consumer purchases most
people will ever make. Yet
when you shop for a piano
you're up against a vast
variety of brands, models,
and styles, competing
claims, and strange
terminology. Finally, here is
a book to guide you through
the process with practical
information on every aspect
of buying and owning a new
or used piano.
