Hi Mark, I am afraid you are quite wrong about pianos not changing significantly. Unfortunately the sound board influences inharmonicity, and the sound board changes with humidity and temperature. Some one has used the term "impedance" of the board--not truely the correct term, but it does change. Many FAC users will attest to the numbers changing over time.
