Arnie Eagle Full Member Registered: 10/29/09 Posts: 68	Is the best way of finding an independent piano technician just to do a Google search? Does anyone know a good tech available in the general region of the Detroit suburbs? Thanks.

If they all answer "me" then you have a problem, but I imagine that if they have any integrity they may all point to one,two or three individuals that stand out from the crowd. Its a good technique to see who you has the most respect in the area, too. _________________________ Recordings of my recent solo piano and piano/keyboard trio jazz standards.
