I can tell when experienced tech has been tuning the piano vs. one with fewer pianos under his/her belt. I am always grateful when following up a seasoned veteran. Pitch is more consistent throughout--even though it might be uniformly flat or sharp--as is pin torque.

Tho I have to say it depends a bit on the tuners involved. I generally find that working after a very experienced and high quality tech is by and large no problem. But with less experienced techs, or those with off the wall tuning hammer techniques then the piano seems to need to <<get used to>> my tuning style. This usually never takes more then a couple tunings. No stats or outright facts here... just my experience. Cheers RicB Do any have a "sense" or knowledge that a piano responds differently to different tuners such that if tuner A is followed by tuner B, the piano gets unstable until it settles into the style of tuning from the second tuner? les bartlett -- ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
