I would love to own a copy of this book, and I am sure that there are a number of other technicians who also would love to own it as well. I love this discussion on well temperament. I just recently tuned two pianos in two different well temperaments, and was surprised at the difference in tone color. Tell us more about well temperament! Sincerely, David David A.
