You know,,, the real kicker is that if it was somebody else money involved...
not only would it have needed tuning... but you would have probably had to hear
how shamefull you should feel for having tuned it so badly in the first place.
A piano tuning should hold muuuucccchh longer then  3 months... the fellow no
doubt has a piano in a courner of his basement that was tuned 12 years ago and
sounds wonderfull still.... who was that masked tuner anyways ????

Hi Hoa Silver.... and AWAY !!
