Bill WJSTuner@juno.com Dear Bill, If I were you and this was a Yamaha under warranty I would order a new string (s?) for this note and see what happens. GH-1's are not the greatest example of Yamahas expertise at building fine pianos. I have found they are most ancious to make the tech and client satisfied as well as maybe giving you good advice on the phone. I have found that no one is any better at doing this.
