Introduction: "Harry, the piano sounds great and feel amazing! ....The Steinway finally became worthy of its name." Jenny Park - St Andrews Presbyterian Newport Beach "Just to let you know that Harry did an outstanding job on my piano. Had several people working on my piano the past years. Just now it sounds like the day I bought it! I highly recommend Harry to all my colleagues ! !" - Catalina D. "Yesterday evening was one of sheer joy as I came home to a piano miraculously transformed. My Steinway grand, a companion of twenty years, had lost its brilliance, its richness, its presence. It had become uneven, and its action heavy. Harry Bui, recently highly recommended by a good friend, attended to my piano yesterday, it became better than it had ever been. I truly could not believe it. Across all those years, first in Alabama and then in Georgia, many good people had looked after this piano; but nobody, in all those years, has even come close to these amazingly wonderful results. I am grateful. Harry Bui is not only an artist and genius when it comes to pianos but a delightful person. I could not recommend him more highly." - Ashley C. "Hello Mr. Bui! Just wanted to send you a message of appreciation. Been practicing and love the way the piano sounds! I play a lot of jazz as well as classical, and the harmonies in jazz require such meticulous tempering. The voicings in jazz chords sound wonderful, and I don't have to wince at imperfections in the tuning! Please take care and thank you again," - Patricia M. "Dear Mr. Bui, I would be delighted for you to quote my comments on your website! People need to know what a fine technician you are! Thank you!" — Patricia M. "I love it! For last Sunday, I played several piano songs during worship. The squeaky pedal is gone, and the piano seemed to sing! Then I remembered that you worked on it. I have been playing piano for almost 54 years, since I was 3 years old. During those many years, I have played very few pianos that "feel" so good. Your work is excellent and I can't thank you enough! On behalf of the church, thank you very much!" - — Dana S. "I have a Baldwin Acrosonic, it's about 20 years old, and never had much of a tuneup. Harry spent a little time with it and ended up fixing the action just about perfectly and tuning the piano. Now it plays better than ever and sounds incredible!" - Jeffrey Cool "To Whom It May Concern: Harry Bui has been tuning my baby grand piano for years. Please - let me rephrase that. Harry Bui has been taking care of my baby grand piano for years. Having someone that can tune your instrument correctly is definitely an asset. Having someone who recognizes problems or potential problems and has the ability and know-how to correctly fix those problems is priceless. I have recommended Harry Bui to my family, my friends, and to every church where I have served. If you need your piano taken care of by someone who knows piano's, respects them, and respects those who play them - my recommendation to you is Harry Bui. Sincerely," — Emily G. "Harry Bui is a piano technician whom I trust completely with my instrument. He is skillful and meticulous, and tunes the piano with utmost care. Harry is a registered technician with the Piano Technicians Guild whom I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an experienced and skillful tuner." - — Maisy P., M.M, L.T.C.L. "I am extremely pleased with Harry's knowledge and skill. I have an antique grand piano and Harry made it sound like brand new. Many thanks to Harry." - Ken K. "It is so wonderful to have finally found a real piano tuner. Mr. Bui is a real professional." - Cynthia G. "Fixed the action - I can actually play again! Great eye for detail, very thorough." - Jimmy P. My company's goal is to maintain my stellar reputation by continually providing my clients with excellent and affordable piano service. There is nothing more satisfying than having my customers say they never heard their pianos sounded better.

Harry Bui arrived promptly at 2:30 today, as scheduled, to tune my piano. He went right to work and took the time to explain his initial findings and what he proposed to do. My piano had never been tuned, so I was pretty sure it would take additional time and effort and I was fine with that. Harry provided an update midway through to let me know how the work was going and what it would take to complete. Harry is very professional and is definitely skilled in working with pianos. He is also a very nice man. After he finished his work, he played my piano. The sound of the piano was so beautiful and Harry plays so well that I actually got tears in my eyes! I will definitely have him come back to tune my piano every year, as recommended. Thanks Harry!

Mr. Bui replied promptly and clearly to my request, gave me a quick and convenient appointment, and showed up right on time, ready to work. Another tuner had been very negative about my 102 year old Kohler Campbell, but he was just the opposite. The first thing he did was sit down and play some really loud classical music! He told me (and showed me) that the piano still had its wonderful grand piano tone. He checked the strings and said they were strong, firm, and tight. He tuned the piano twice, since it had been so long, and to save the strings from extra stress, fixed the one sticky key, and then pointed out what he could do to further improve the piano for what I considered a very modest additional fee. He showed me in detail what was needed, and why. I went ahead with everything, and in the end, I had my wonderful piano back -- a piano I have played and loved since I was six years old (75 years). My children will be so glad to gather around it at Christmas.

Details: Upright • Routine tuning • More than 2 years ago • A few times a year • 11 years or more • Fix sticky keys

Harry Bui is a phenomenal piano technician. I hired him to do some major work on my Krakauer upright (install new damper and hammer felts, rebush the keys, regulate the action, voicing, replace the casters, and of course tuning). He tended to his work with great care, discernment, and attention to detail at a very reasonable price. My piano now sounds absolutely beautiful and the action feels amazing. I didn’t know my piano was capable of feeling so good! He breathed new life into my 100 year old upright, and now it plays better than any upright I’ve ever touched. I also had him tune my parents old Baldwin Acrosonic, and he made it sound and feel better than ever before. I highly recommend Harry, especially if the action/feel of your piano is important to you. This man works wonders. I wish there were more men and women like him in the service industry.
