Well, I must have received a specific use permit because heaven hasn't forbid me from using an electronic reference. I get mine out, and for the first chip I tune each string 30-cents sharp. Second time is 10-cents # then I start just tuning normally. Now if a divine voice forbids you, you're on your own! dp __________________________ David M.

Quick question from a new tuning student. If you come across a piano that is totally out of whack (or a piano that you've restrung), and you don't have an electronic tuner (heaven forbid!), what's the quickest way to get the strings on pitch? Being a music teacher, I can figure it out but it takes a really long time. Any tricks of the trade? Thanks!
