Yes. And other small pianos that do not appear to be played by advanced-level pianists.

> Others in Coleman 11? 

Some. If it is a bigger, better or whatever piano, I tune it ET, but if the pianist appears interested in the piano, etc., I will ask if they would like to try a non-ET. I usually suggest the Coleman 11 as a starter.

> Do you still tune any ET's?

Yes, at least half the pianos I tune.

No, but many have said "Thank You!"
