Tuned a Hyundai G-82 grand, today. First I'd ever seen or even heard of? (We live a sheltered life, here in the boondocks, i.e., the Ozarks.) Pretty case, has potential I think, but regulation is horrible (see horror story below) and it badly needs voicing after that. Meat of Message (pork, mostly): Does anyone out there have a set of reg specs for this piano or know where I could reasonable get them? Horror story, the worst note: F5 blocking against the strings "chingank" sort of sound. Found the lettoff button screwed to the top, no letoff at all. "Who would do this," I ask, "and why?" Tried to set a letoff, but the hammer failed to reset on every blow, i.e., dead note, no play. Hmmm ... Further investigation finds the jack way too high, about 3 mm above the rep window. No wonder someone who couldn't/didn't diagnose the problem correctly messed with the letoff trying to get it to reset--I'm surprised he/she left the front rail punchings in place! Adjusted jack height and all is wellor at least the note plays, lets off, and resets. The only excuse I can give our mystery tuner is that who the heck would expect a key regulation item to be so far out of whack? And why would it? Given the piano's one-owner history, it almost had to come from the factory or dealer this way. Alan Barnard Salem, MO -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
