{'quote': 'I highly recommend Fred Cole from Specialty Pianos. Fred has tuned and repaired both my pianos for nearly thirty years. One of my pianos was taken to his workshop near Lismore to be given a new French polish, as well as key and hammer repair. I am always pleased with the intonation and keyboard touch after each tuning. Fred is always quick to respond and punctual. Highly recommended!', 'author': 'Deirdre Paillas, Lismore NSW'}
