LED Piano lamps are the most energy efficient way to provide light for your piano music. They also work well on music stands, and are portable so they are easily transported to rehearsals and performances. You can see a nice selection of LED Piano Lamps at Pianoscomplete.com

If you are looking to purchase a used piano, you should never buy without hiring a piano technician to perform an inspection. You cannot tell if a piano is a good instrument just by looking at it. I have had many customers who purchased pianos based on looks, only to find out that they needed hundreds or even thousands of dollars worth of repair work. It is worth the minimal fee that a piano technician will charge to inspect a piano. It may save you a lot of money as well as saving you the trouble of dealing with a piano in poor condition.

If your child is advancing fast on the piano, and is beginning to use the pianos pedals but can not reach them, you should check out a pedal extender. A pedal extender is basically an adjustable height platform with 2 pedals on it. You place the platform over the actual piano pedals, and adjust the height to a comfortable level for your child. What this does is to allow the student to work the pedals without having to reach for them. Visit Pianoscomplete.com to see a few different piano pedal extenders.

As a piano owner, you should have maintenance work done (in addition to tuning) every so often to your instrument. This may include regulation of the action, cleaning of the action and strings, action lubrication and tightening, cleaning the soundboard (grand piano), as well as other repair and maintenance procedures. Also, you should take the proper steps to care for the cabinet and keys. You have to be careful when using cleaning and polishing products on a piano. Pianos have various finishes, and you need to use cleaners that are formulated for specific finishes. For example, if you have a high gloss finish (shiny finish), you should use a cleaner such as Cory High Gloss Piano Polish. For cleaning keys (plastic, wood, ivory) use the Key Polish by Cory for best results.
