Tuning

[YouthPage8@aol.com]

As I said in my earlier post, I have only been tuning for a short time.
During this time I have always spent a few moments listening to the intervals
in the temperament octave to find out how out of tune the piano is.  However,
I am beginning to think that this is a complete waste of time.  I would like
to know what the voice of experience says- What do you listen to in the piano
and for that matter, what do you look for in the piano before you strip it off
and start tuning?

Thanks,
