>Is there a remedy for a piano where just about every tuning pin is jumpy?

Several - among them, new block, new pins. Protek CLP has been reported to 
help, and I seem to remember someone saying CA may too, though I'm not sure 
about that one.


>Does time cure this?

Yes. If you don't tune it for at least thirty years, you'll get jump-free 
service through that entire period. I recommend trying that approach first.


Perhaps the "Bambino Treatment" would be appropriate................

No need to strain anything crappie sheltering it into the lake. Just tune 
it on the pier and it'll jump by itself.

Oh, and what brand might this be?
