I imagine that if you "recently" tuned the piano (last week or last month or
two months ago) and now it's still "in tune" but a couple of cents sharp,
you tune it where it lies? That makes it a half-hour tuning instead of an
hour and a half, and the following week (or month or couple of months) you
again tune it where it lies, and within six months, when you have the couple
of hours, you bring it all to 440 again. Yes? Or do you keep adjusting it to
440 every time? Or sell Dampp-chasers?

I tune cruise ship pianos once a week.  On them you have the problem of
rocking, vibrations, salt air, hard players and continuous playing
(mechanisms).  Comes down to the fact that you tune a whenever it needs it.

Hi everyone,
How often is too often to tune a piano?  I typically see twice a year, or
even every three months.  Is anything less than that necessary such as once
a month or even once a week which I 've heard of?
