Sid, I stand on my head to avoid tuning left handed.<G> Well not exactly, my head is to the left leasning over with my right elbow at about 10 o'clock and Ball end at 12 o'clock to 1 o'clock. Not very comfy but works for the last octave or so. The one that gets me is the upright piano that opens like a grand and the hinge pin is a foot long and can only be removed from the back of the piano requiring one to pull the piano out from the wall to remove the pin so that the piano can be tuned. Phew. Is that a long rant. <G> Joe Goss imatunr@srvinet.com www.mothergoosetools.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "sid blum" <sid@sover.net> To: <pianotech@ptg.org> Sent: Saturday, December 01, 2001 12:28 PM Subject: Re: Prepping the Piano for the Tuner - slightly OT > > > Then, again moving the bench as necessary, strike > > with your left hand, any octave containing the high C.
