[pianotech] yamaha C6

[Leslie Bartlett]

Rendering is not unreasonable. The piano is probably 20 years old.  Well, I
did a nasty and put a thin film of protek/Teflon on the bearing points, and
think that helped a bit.  It's as bad as some of the Chinese things I have
had to despise- and for a Yamaha, which has been my favorite "brand" to
tune, mostly because I did hundreds of P22's in a school system, along with
a bunch of C 7's- but this piano is unique in my experience. 

Thanks

does it have to do with rendering?

I've been tuning a C6 for 7 years or more, and it has every time been h***
to tune, and a 3-hour job. Nothing will stay stable. I've been doing it
every two months now for awhile and today was the second time I didn't have
to go through each string on second pass.  Is it possible that the agraffes
have been ground so sharply that one can't get a stable termination point?
I'm a decent tuner and have done some mean pianos, but this one has left me
befuddled.  Any sage advice??????  I think it will be replaced by the first
of the year, but I'll still be dealing with it for some time.

Thanks
