Shigeru techs sightings

Hello list, and Mr. Mannino in particular,

One of the stores I do some contract work for had a concert this past Friday. 
 The store manager asked me to get a Kawai RX 6 ready for the concert with 
the time I had allotted for store work.

I spent about 4 hours + pitch raising, tuning, lubing knuckles, and keypins, 
and doing a minor regulation.  I thought it played and sounded purty danged 
good when I was done. Granted, nothing had probably been done to it regarding 
regulation in the two years since it had been uncrated. 

So I called the store the next day to find out how things went and how the 
piano performed.  Turns out, a 7 foot Shigeru had been brought in for the event, 
and with it came one of the elusive Shigeru techs who spent some hours on the 
piano, then spent a few more on the RX 6 I'd just worked on.  Hopefully, I 
did a decent job of roughing it in for him....:-)

So my point here is, I'd like to see one of these techs work, and find out 
why they are so highly regarded.  Don, if at all possible, it would be really 
nice to have a heads-up when something like this is going to happen, so I can 
block out the time to come and garner a bit of knowledge and wisdom.  It would 
be very valuable to me, as well as all of the customers of Kawai pianos--and 
there are many--that I service regularly.

Thanks in advance,

Dave Stahl
