In December 2012,we purchased an old Mehlin baby grand piano that had been left to the elements and exposed to dampness that caused some damage and rust.The piano played, but needed a lot of work.We contacted Russell Coltharp at Coltharp Piano World and asked him to look at the piano; if he could give us a" ballpark estimate" on what the range of costs might be for repairing the piano; and or delivering the piano to our home in Atoka,TN. Mr. Coltharp gave us some possible estimates/ranges depending on the condition of the piano when he saw it; what we wanted done and the costs or expenses on how extensive we wanted the piano refurbished, but informed us beforehand that he would need to reassess the repair estimates if we wanted him to review the piano at his shop to get a better and more accurate estimate on what needed to be done. He allowed extra time to review the piano and because of his caring for the piano and his professionalism, we decided to have the piano taken to his shop for a more accurate checkout. After his thorough review of the piano, Mr. Coltharp contacted us and went over the repairs that needed to be done to meet our expectations and to keep the costs within our budget.Hesentusa work order that was thorough and explicit on what would be done on repairing the piano. He kept within our budget and the work order estimates. There is no doubt in our minds that Mr. Coltharp and his wife created MAGIC in bringing the 93 year old Mehlin back to life and its beauty, which brought tears to my wife and me on how it turned out and sounds when we saw it for the first time after being repaired and delivered to our home and was played.Additionally,there was no piano bench for the piano when we bought it, and Mrs. Coltharp spent hours trying to locate one forus that came close to matching the style and color of the piano, which she was able to do so and was really appreciated.They LOVE what they do; they care about their customers and families that they are destined to cross paths with; and we highly recommend Russell and Karin Coltharp at Coltharp Piano World for consideration and selection to restore/refurbish/repair your piano unequivocally.
