About
My name is Mitch and I've been dedicated to music for most of my life. For nearly three decades, I have been professionally tuning pianos, ensuring the most precise and accurate tuning available. When you schedule an appointment with me through my website, expect a smiling face on arrival, as I am passionate about making pianos sound their best. I am comfortable around children and pets, and have been fully vaccinated and boosted. No shoes in the house? No problem! Please note that I am only accepting serious inquiries and scheduling soon, as CrackerJack leads have become expensive.

For the remainder of 2022, I am pleased to include interior cleaning with every tuning. At Tickled Ivories, I provide quality piano services at affordable rates, using a combination of advanced technology and artistic attention to detail. I take pride in working with a wide range of piano styles, including antique uprights, spinets, and concert grand pianos. I never rush through tuning or repairs, taking the necessary time to ensure excellent results.

My base rate includes service within 40 miles of downtown Cincinnati OH, tuning to A440 Hz, pedal adjustment, bench tightening, and incidental repairs that don't require action part removal. If your piano is far below pitch, it will require a pitch correction pass for an additional $25 fee. All of my work is guaranteed, and further details can be found on my website. Please note that I am often unable to answer phone calls but can respond to texts.

Although my spouse and I are not well-informed about pianos (by chance, we obtained one, and my husband is currently self-taught in playing), Mitch's expertise is astounding! He was highly proficient and punctual. His rates were reasonable compared to other tuners I found on the internet. The appointment scheduler on his website was user-friendly and had vast availability in terms of scheduling. Despite our limited knowledge, we could discern the improvement in the sound of our small upright piano after Mitch finished with it, and it was simply stunning. We shall certainly enlist Mitch's services again next year for our annual tuning!

Unfortunately, I was unable to be present during the tuning process, but my wife was in attendance. She was instantly amazed by Mitch's punctuality, expertise, meticulousness, and ability to interact with our five children and pets. We plan on having him return for future tune-ups and a complete piano detailing when the time is appropriate. Mitch, thank you so much!

The skilled musician clearly adores his profession and was joyous about it. He even captured snapshots of the instrument before and after tidying up. Following tuning, he performed a remarkable composition on the piano.
