How Long Can A Piano Go Without Being Tuned?

There are four factors involved as to how long a piano could go without being tuned:

1. Quality Of The Piano: A brand new piano that has not been played a lot, would not need to be tuned for a few months. A used piano might need a tune up within a few weeks of its purchase.
2. Environmental Conditions: If a piano sits in a consistently, temperature controlled room, the number of tuning times reduces. A room that has fluctuating humidity would require a piano to be checked more frequently.
3. How Often Is It Played: A student learning how to play would require more tuning updates since they play a lot. If a person does not play often, then the piano will not need to be tuned regularly.
4. How Demanding Is The Player: The person who owns the piano would determine how often it should be tuned. They might want it tuned every few weeks or months, even if the piano is in great shape.
