Yes, Ken, I read it and it's all "old news" This variation in standards has been around ever since the original hand forged tuning pins by Clementi. Nothing has changed. This is why I have eight tuning tips in my regular kit. Wait! It' not only tuning pins though - it's some piano manufacturers who place the pins in the web so close together that only a special thin-wall tip will work. I only have one thin-wall - if, because of irregularities in the pin in that web, my thin-wall doesn't fit I'm up the creek. There are so many variations! Who spotted the spelling mistake in that blurb?
