Thomas, Yes, what pitch to tune this instrument to was my original question.? Thanks for your input. Alan Eder P. S. What does "fibberty gibbet" mean? ae -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Martin <flibberti.gibbet at yahoo.com> To: pianotech at ptg.org Sent: Sun, 12 Oct 2008 3:09 pm Subject: Re: pitch of old upright Since I think you inquired about what pitch it was scaled for.? I think it may be 435.? My grandmother had a Cousin with a Model A Steinway from 1908 and he was convinced it was designed for 435 and tuned it to that.? I think standard pitch was set at 440 in llike 1915.? I have a 1908 upright and I tune it to 440 though.? I'd wager it can handle it. ?
