[CAUT] Advice

[Jeff Olson]

Hi, Avery,

I've tuned a couple of newer studio KCs in the last few months.  They caught 
my eye -- or should I say "ear" :) -- because they had a bit more resonance 
and depth than I was expecting.  They were both quite bright tonally --  
reminded me of the newer studio Samicks I just finished tuning at the local 
university.  I'd say they were not bad pianos at all; not up to Yamaha, 
obviously, but probably decent for basic practice pianos, if that's what 
your professor is looking for.

Best,

J0
