Piano Maintenance

The best ongoing maintenance for your piano is to have it tuned regularly. Most piano manufacturers and piano technicians recommend tuning a piano 2x's per year. A piano will go out of tune even if it is not played. Changes in humidity levels effect the stability of a pianos tuning. If you leave a piano untuned for longer periods of time, it usually will go way out of tune. Then when you decide to tune it, you will more than likely have to have it tuned a few times to get it back to the correct pitch and stabilize the instrument. If you tune it regularly (even 1x per year is good) it will remain at the correct pitch (or at least very close) and will be a more stable instrument.

Adjustable Piano Benches

Adjustable piano benches are the best choice when looking to purchase a piano bench. They allow you to adjust the height to the most comfortable playing position. They work great for adults and children, are are great for those who have more than one piano player in the home, as the bench can be adjusted for each player.
They are also upholstered for added comfort, and some models even have music storage compartments.
Pianoscomplete.com carries a nice selection of adjustable piano benches with many options to choose from.

Piano Bench Cushions

There are advantages to adding a cushion to your piano bench. First, it adds color and style to the bench as well as the room that the piano is in. It also adds comfort to uncomfortable wood top piano benches. Bench cushions also act as a booster to give the player a little extra height. Cushions come in 1", 2", and 3" thicknesses as well as many colors and designs.
