Knapp’s Music Center Gets Issues Related to Guitars, Pianos, and More
Nothing lasts forever, especially mechanical objects like musical instruments. Eventually the family piano, teenager’s guitar, child’s keyboard, and other music-making items need serviced or repaired. At Knapp’s Music Center, we know how to fix almost any instrument because, more often than not, the issue is commonplace. Here is a list of common issues with various instruments:
Common Piano and Keyboard Issues
Pianos and keyboards often get stuck, sticky, damaged, or dirty keys. Electric keyboards sometimes lose volume or have uneven tones. Sometimes, the electric keyboard LCD is broken, cracked, or does not light up. Other times piano keys fail to sound a note because of a string or hammer mechanical failure. As pianos age and go unused, they eventually need tuning.
Common Guitar Issues
Acoustic guitar pickguards sometimes peel off. Electric guitars develop bad intonation. Many times, strings refuse to stay in their slots inside the nuts. As guitars age over time, frets, bridges, and necks, need eventual refurbishing or repairs.
Common Drum Kit Issues
Drumheads can wear out and cymbals can crack. Lugs, bolts, wingnuts, and other spare parts often need replaced. Drums can also get bent tension rods, snare strands round rims, and damaged tension posts or tubes.
Common Orchestral and Ensemble Instrument Issues
Woodwinds often need repadding or re-plating. Sometimes they need a complete overhaul. Brasswinds plating or lacquer are susceptible to bumps and scratches. The hands pitting oils and moisture can degrade and dull brass finishes over time. Violins’, violas’, cellos’, and double basses’ fingerboards can get loose, varnishes scratched, and cracks, chips, and damage to the wood.
