Wim/Pitch raise experiment

[Joseph Garrett]

Wim,
You are such a woose! "Why chance it"?!! to get the piano at pitch and have
the tuning be more effective and relevant to making MUSIC! I maintain, if
the piano, (the whole piano), cannot be tuned to standard pitch or it's
designed pitch, then it needs, either to be repaired or trashed. It's just
that simple. Any tuner that, without total knowledge of the customers needs,
(current and future), tunes a piano a 1/2 tone flat, usually because he
doesn't want a string to break, is not a good tech IMO. This is usually
because that tooner does not carry any string stock, etc. and besides,
usually couldn't fix a hang nail w/o drawing major blood.
Just MHO.
