I am trying to sell my Randy Potter course for more than +20% off the retail, if anyone is interested, please email me privately at doug at dougrenz.com to discuss and make an offer. I would like to not break it up in part, but sell it as a whole to someone who is desiring to learn the trade. I highly recommend the course also.

I figured someone would chime in concerning the other schools. I'm glad you did!

No self-interest involved. Geography might be an issue.

If you have the self discipline to get through all of the materials, you will have a good foundation from which to move forward. Joining PTG is a must in my opinion. Your original e-mail also mentioned schools. If you have the time and resources, you might consider the North Bennett Street School in Boston. Check out their website at nbss.org. Have a good one!

I was an engineer by training and came at this as a career change opportunity with a modest musical background but no experience in piano tuning or repair. I would give both of Randy's courses a strong recommendation. As with any home study course, you need to be diligent about working through the texts, videos and tests. I think I averaged about 20 - 30 hours / week and it took me 5 months to finish the course. If you can afford it, I'd encourage you to purchase the entire course at once (I think Randy still gives the option to purchase in installments). I found it very helpful to have everything there from the beginning. Good luck, Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
