<< Hi to all,
 I was wondering how much time it takes for a well trained aural tuner to
 tune a piano from the first to the last key? I use an ETD myself and it
 takes appr. 1.30 h to tune a piano. Nothing personal, just curious:)
 Best regards,

Wim:

For an "intune" piano that I service twice or once a year, when I was tuning
by ear, I took 45 min to an hour. Now that I use a SATII, I take 35 - 45
minutes. This is an average on most pianos. I have taken as little as 25
minutes, and as long as 90 minutes.
