I always spend between 1.2 and 1.5 hours, unless I'm following myself on a piano that's tuned often; then it will be less. I can do what most people would perceive as a fabulous, solid tuning in 45 minutes, but it's not that much fun---I like it slow and precise. Only aural for me at this time. For concerts and recording, it could be 5 or 10 minutes longer, but never 2 hours unless the pins are extremely jumpy or there are a LOT of false beats in the treble that I have to "Obewon-Kenobi" into silence.
