Customer Reviews

Best Resource Available For Professionals and Hobby Piano players5
I enjoyed Fine's first book and have recommended it to
clients wanting to buy a new piano. I have seen
first hand how it saved some clients tons of money.
For those who already have the first book, I highly
recommend buying this updated version.

A great reference5
I would seriously recommend this book to anyone thinking of buying a new piano. It lists every brand I've ever heard of and many I haven't. There is a tier system set up so you can compare brands within a price range. My wife and I learned a lot about pianos in general, which helped us make our decision as to which one to buy. It's a supplement to the main book and comes out every year.

Invaluable source5
Larry Fine's book is an invaluable source not only for those of us in the piano business, but for anyone who owns a piano and especially for those who are seeking to purchase one. I highly recommend it.
