[pianotech] Pitch raising limit

[Piano Boutique]

Mark,

Anyone who knows and desires the difference between 440 and 442, knows about 200 cents pitchraise.   More than once I have had to pin down if a customer knows ore doesn't know.

This reminds me of one of my sayings.

Those that don't know, don't know they don't know.

Those who know, knows who doesn't know.

William

  Greeting for the day List

  What is the pitch raising limit? How many cents can one pitch raise without ruining/overstretching the strings, eg (for lack of words)- Piano is 200 cents flat and your customer wants the piano to be tuned to A442. Is this a one pass pitch raise, and then tune or 3 pass pitch raise, how, what and why would you do?

  Please excuse the way I have asked the question/s.  I don't know how to ask it better, simpler, clearer. 

  Thank you,

  Regards

  Mark Davis
