It would be very important to inform the customer of the phenomena, so that they would know the piano will sound different, fan off/on. Possibly someone mentioned this, and I missed it. I find I am missing a lot lately. :-( John M.

Having done your best possible job tuning the piano, which is what you're being paid to do professionally, you might inform the client that the fan will make the piano sound odd. Whether they care is not your business; your tuning is your business.

If it's a quality piano(don't go there..it's been a loong day) in a quality home, fans go off. If it's the bargain-basement PSO that we all know, and it hasn't been tuned in xx(x) years, a fan isn't going to make any difference, in my opinion..and probably the opinion of others..I'm just not bashful in saying so. ..i think I need a drink!.., -Phil Bondi(Fl) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
