list - i recently tuned a baldwin 9' grand where several notes in the 1st capo range were really out of tune. on this piano, each note has one little duplex "bar" in front of the hitchpin, and right in the killer octave these "bars" were wildly out of position, like, they were an very odd angles to the strings instead of perpendicular to each string. now, this could only happen during restringing, since they can't really be moved under full string tension. has anybody seen anything like this? would this cause extreme tuning instability? why would they be at an angle to the string? the rest of the piano has the duplex bars aligned perpendicular to the strings. best, jeremy -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
