Reconditioning
Before a piano is offered for sale, it undergoes a rigorous inspection by our certified technicians:

Action Mechanism
The action mechanism is adjusted and serviced to provide an even and properly weighted touch for the player. Uneven or sluggish actions make pressing the piano keys more difficult, and result in the player becoming discouraged.

Pinblock
The pinblock, cast-iron plate, keybed, and back supports are all inspected and tested for structural weaknesses, defects and cracks. This step is critical in guaranteeing that the piano will hold its tune effectively.

Soundboard
The soundboard is thoroughly checked for structural soundness and proper tonal response. This guarantees that the piano will have the maximum depth of sound and sustain necessary for good tone. All felt in the hammers, dampers and action mechanism is inspected for strength and tone characteristics.

Warranty
Virtually every pre-owned piano is guaranteed to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of two years or more.

100% Trade Value
A quality constructed, properly maintained acoustic piano retains its value over time, therefore Marin Piano offers a full trade (100% of the piano's purchase price) on a new piano of higher price for ten years.
