Hi List,
I will confirm that Roger is the original Redneck Piano Technician.
I submitted his first list, to this list after he gave it to me at the
Convention
in Arlington.
Unfortunately, I had to reformat and lost it.
Would you get Roger to post it again, please.
Some were:-
if you get your customer to hold your beer
if your old tool box is your new piano tool case

Regards,
John M. Ross
