Emily V, Cambridge MA:
"I have a majestic mahogany Steinway "B" from 1914 that was restored almost 2 years ago. If you think I'd let just anyone touch it, you're crazy! Eric is easy to talk to and reliable. He pays attention to the smallest details. Moreover, he's a skilled technician--able to zero in and fix any issues that come up with my Steinway. No need to look farther than Donnelly Piano Service, no matter what kind of piano you play."
Hester H, Cambridge MA
"I'm a former concert pianist who recently acquired a very old baby grand which needed some work done beyond the regular tuning. Eric was unfailingly polite and professional, but, most importantly, knew his stuff. He was instantly able to diagnose the issues with the piano, was upfront about which things might not be worth the cost of fixing, and didn't try to overcharge me (though he easily could have). He was quick, yet diligent with the task at hand. I am very impressed and will be sticking with Eric in the future!"
Daniel Daskivich, recording engineer, Somerville MA
"Responsive, Knowledgeable, Thorough, Helpful
Knowing very little about pianos myself, Eric helped me understand exactly what it was I was looking for in a piano for my recording studio. He responded to my inquiry for assistance immediately and checked out a few pianos for me until I found the right one, which he tuned up beautifully once purchased. He was incredibly knowledgeable, genuinely interested in my satisfaction, tremendously helpful, and just an all-around reasonable and nice guy. Seriously! He'll be tuning my Yamaha for years to come."
