A FAQ in process, pt 3: Do you fix __________, which is not an electro-acoustic Wurlitzer Electric Piano? (no.)

Do you fix __________, which is not an electro-acoustic Wurlitzer Electric Piano?
My business is niche to an almost comedic degree.  I specialize in repairing and tuning only Wurlitzer Electric Pianos, which are a specific series of instruments that were made from 1954 through mid-1983. I find that narrowing my focus to these instruments allow me to do the deepest and best possible work.

I do not fix digital pianos. 
If the instrument makes no sound when it is unplugged from the wall, it is probably not something I fix.  I don’t fix Yamaha, Kawaii, Roland, Casio, Suzuki, Kurzweil or Baldwin digital electric pianos.  I do not fix Nords.  I also don’t fix Wurlitzer digital electric pianos, which were made by the Baldwin company starting in the later 1980’s.  I recommend that you contact the company that made your piano, and get a list of local authorized repair people.

I do not fix other Wurlitzer products.
I do not fix Wurlitzer player pianos, acoustic pianos, console organs, Funmaker organs or digital pianos.  I do not fix Wurlitzer Jukeboxes, or other classroom band instruments with Wurlitzer branding on them.

I do not fix Hammond Organs, or other electric organs. I do not fix digital or analog synthesizers.
Self explanatory.

I do not yet fix other electro-acoustic keyboard instruments, for the most part.
The obvious one would be Fender Rhodes pianos, and Hohner Pianets, and eventually I may expand my business to include those.  I would currently consider fixing Hohner Clavinets on a case-by-case basis, as I do know how to do so.  I have not explored Yahama CP-70’s or CP-80’s, though I would explore the option under the right circumstances.  Right now I have my hands full repairing Wurlitzer Electric (Electronic) Pianos.
