[pianotech] Funny Advice?

Hi,
That is why digital pianos do not have a pure piano tone.  They give them a 
chorus effect to make them seem more real.  Perfect is detected and 
interpreted as phony.

Actual verbage from the repair and tuning manual for the Hammond Chord 
Organ:

>>>   Remember that small differences in tuning are highly desirable because 
>>> they add a "chorus effect" which gives added richness to the tone.   <<<

Dang ... so here I've spent all these years being fussy for nothing? Maybe 
it's just me, but I don't think unisons should sound too much like a 
"chorus".
