Fortunately, I had borrowed a copy from the library because if I remember right, this light weight book cost about double what a current hardcover best seller would go for. In this book he soundly denounced the use of any electronic tuning device. Having made this view very clear, it was then inevitable that the title of his next book would be "Electronic Piano Tuning". Hey, anyone can have a change of heart. Dave Bunch
