Greetings, 


               I tune every piano that is possible to tune at A440 to A440; 
by possible to tune at A440, I mean within 2-3 cents of A440. If a piano is 
below that, I inform the customer that it is flat and explain that I can either 
tune the piano where it is or it will need to be pulled up ...a pitch raise 
pass to get it to A440. Then I charge accordingly. Some pianos require a tuning 
with a second pass in the midrange; some take one full pass plus a second pass 
in the midrange then tune...still yet others will require 2 full passes then 
tune and some even require 2 passes and a 3rd pass in the midrange and then 
tune. It depends; depends on what the customer wants. 

Julia, 
Reading, PA
