>From what I remember when UA had an inspection, they don't really go around and inspect the pianos. When it comes to pianos, all they want to know is that they are being taken care of. They don't even care about the?qualification of the technician, much less a budget.?

Hi All, 

We are having the NASM/NASD accredidation "inspections" in a couple weeks. ?What have you all found that they "inspect" on the piano end of it? ?Our building is going haywire on humidity(dangerously dry!) and I'm finding that pianos I just tuned a few weeks ago are wildly wacky and can in no way tune them all...! ?Do they inspect practice pianos....or should I only dust them off and make sure the faculty and performance pianos are the ones up to snuff? ?How about the harpsichords and forte pianos? ?(they only stay in tune for a couple of days anyway...)????????????????? 

Thanks for the input. ?I've never gone through this before..
