Testing
In the weeks prior to final delivery, Bob arranged for the newly restored piano (East Coast Piano Rebuilding) and the restored player mechanism (The Hunt Piano Company) to go through a “break-in” period.
The piano was played first by a Vorcetzer and then played by the VirtualRoll. The break-in period allows the piano and the reproducing mechanism to settle in and regulation, tuning, voicing can be fine-tuned.
As the restoration project neared completion, I was invited to visit East Coast Piano Rebuilding to see my grand piano completely restored and the VirtualRoll in action. Here is a photo of the piano as I saw it for the first time being played by the VirtualRoll.
I simply cannot speak highly enough about the quality of Bob and Brian’s work on the piano. The attention to detail and the quality of the workmanship in every aspect of the restoration was absolutely impeccable. (as word of mouth told me it would be).
