Piano is one of the most beautiful and most expensive instruments. In this article we will talk in detail about piano prices, maintenance, refurbishment, tuning and so on. You will know how much a piano costs from the cheapest to the most expensive.
HOW MUCH DOES A PIANO COST?
The question of how much a piano costs deserves a very comprehensive answer, since a piano can cost from 5,000 to 5 million reais. Piano is not just a simple instrument, but also a piece of furniture that stands out and embellishes the scenery.
Unfortunately, a piano is considered a rich instrument in Brazil, while in other countries it is common to find this instrument in homes. The piano is quite inaccessible to Brazilians and their interest is low compared to other places.
Used pianos can be found for up to 3,000 reais, but it requires a good makeover. Pianos are wood and can last a lifetime, but care is necessary to keep the piano safe, it is also good to do an investigation so as not to end up buying any bombs.
In music instrument stores in Brazil, you can find pianos starting from 8,000 reais. A very steep price for a country where people earn a meager 2,501 TP9T in minimum wage. Not to mention the courses or lessons that you might want to take.
DIGITAL PIANO - A CHEAP ALTERNATIVE
You may not have liked the prices of a string piano. Maybe you want to start with a cheaper instrument, the digital piano can be a good option, as it comes with pedals and the same number of keys.
A digital piano can vary from 1,000 to 5,000 reais, some have advantages such as different sounds and tones resembling a musical keyboard. Another advantage of the digital piano is that it usually takes up less space than a string piano.
Perhaps you have thought of a music keyboard, as it allows you to control the rhythm and offers thousands of extra touches and functions. After spending a long time with the keyboard, I realized that I prefer a piano, because I rarely use these extra functions that exclude the real functions of a digital or string piano.
When the piano doesn't hold the tuning, you may need to fix the cepheus preparer, which can be the main cause of the problem. Rarely will you need to replace it; most tuners know how to resolve the issue, but be prepared to spend a bit more.
BUYING A USED PIANO
Some instrument stores sell used pianos, sometimes they look new, as they are refurbished. Always ask where the piano comes from and be careful not to buy the wrong piano and then regret it.
Some stores offer used or refurbished pianos with a 1 year warranty, be wary because a piano lasts much longer than that. If the guarantee is short in this way, the renovation has probably been poorly done and can present problems faster.
Many buy pianos in terrible condition for a cheap price and do the low quality renovation to sell much more expensive and profit more. Be careful when buying a piano online or at a physical store.
HOW MUCH DOES A PIANO MAINTAIN?
The maintenance and refurbishment of a string piano can be very expensive. Everything will depend on the type of maintenance, the place where you will do it and the quality of the parts you will use. Below is a list of the average expenses for maintaining a piano.
| SERVICES | AVERAGE PRICE |
| Decupinization and Immunization against termites | R $ 1,000.00 to 3,000.00 |
| Intonation of the piano hammer | R $ 500 to R $ 1000 |
| Polishing and cleaning the keyboard or changing the keyboard cover | R $ 1,0500.00 to 3,000.00 |
| Complete piano restoration or overhaul | R $ 3,000.00 to 6,000.00 |
| Minor repairs, mechanical overhaul and adjustment | R $ 1,000.00 & nbsp; to 3,000.00 |
| Change of stump and / or pegs | R $ 3,000.00 to 5,000.00 |
| Changing the piano string | R $ 50.00 to 300.00 per rope |
| Changing all strings | R $ 2,000.00 to 5,000.00 |
| Changing the Keyboard Bushing | R $ 500.00 to 2,000.00 |
| Change of hammer | R $ 2,000.00 to 5,000.00 |
| Changing or revising earmuffs | R $ 500.00 to 2,000.00 |
| Piano varnish or painting | R $ 3,000.00 to 7,000.00 |
HOW MUCH DOES IT TAKE TO Tune A PIANO?
Another type of maintenance that you need to do on your piano at least once a year is its tuning. Some rarely do the tuning themselves, so you need to find a piano tuning professional.
The price of a piano tuner will depend on the location where you live. Some may try to tune it themselves, but tools and a piano tuning course are necessary for good results. Tuning can last from 15 minutes to 2 hours.
If the piano is just a little out of tune, you should spend at least 300 reais on tuning. If you are totally out of tune, you can spend up to more than 500. The price can also vary according to the time the tuner will spend.
LIST OF PIANO MODELS WITH PRICE
To end the article I will leave a long list of piano models followed by their dollar price. I hope you enjoyed the article, if you did, don't forget to comment and share.
The price list below is in dollars, the value may well be 5x higher in reais, since it has the costs of importing and the profit of the seller here in the country. We recommend taking the value of the pianos below and multiplying by 5 to get the average in reais.
