  • Pianist Robert Silverman's review of Chupp's Pianos work

    Robert Silverman
    Thanks so much for the tour of your shop. I was wonderfully impressed with the overall quality of your work. What struck me was how you seemed to bring out the best of what each instrument can do, rather than (wrongly) to apply a single vision to every instrument you work on. Or worse, still, no vision whatsoever.

  • Lori who purchased a Steinway O from us that we rebuilt

    Hi Dennis, Just a quick note to tell you that I had the Steinway in N.C. tuned recently. The tuner, who is also Steinway trained once again commented on the fine job you did on my piano. He said that there are very few in the country that do such a good job at rebuilding pianos. I thought it would make your day knowing that your work is appreciated!

    Thelma and Weyburn

    Dennis, As my favorite old stringed instrument dealer, used to say, "I believe that the sale of musical instruments should be a service profession!" Indeed, I thought of my old friend as I watched you with Weyburn and Thelma on Thursday last week. Superb quality was actually only a part of the equation. I was so impressed with the way you listened to Weyburn and helped him come to a good decision. And then, the way you accommodated him by entering into the surprise aspect of his gift — went way beyond the expectation of professional courtesy. I'm guessing that you fully realized the gift of happiness you gave them. And that you've had that experience before! Let Kathryn and me add our thanks also. And kudos for elevating what many might think of as a daily job to a completely higher level. Cordially, Lon

  • From Bryan who purchased one of our restored Steinway B's

    I hope your business has been doing well. We've always wanted to drive up just to see your showroom again but somehow things have been busy (we've both finished our PhDs at this point) and we've never made it back to New Paris. Just as a side note, we're very very happy with the piano and often get compliments from our tuner on how well it holds its tune and the quality with which it was rebuilt. Please pass this along to your sons and anybody else who works in your shop! Best wishes, Bryan and Brianna

  • Customers send appreciation note about their Steinway B purchased from Chupp's Piano Service

    Dear Dennis, I wanted to write you a quick note letting you know how much we are enjoying the Steinway Model B we purchased from you. It is a lovely instrument with a wonderful sound. The piano was in almost perfect tune when it was delivered, even after the cross country move. The delivery company did a friendly and capable job. Thank you again. Adam and Kate
