I=B4m thinking about if there is a differnse how to tune a unison with =
loop around the hitchpin or if it is three separate strings in the =
unison.=20

Like on Bosendorfer, Bluthner and others.

I met a japanese tech at Bluthner trained first in Japan and then at =
Bosendorfer. He now works at Bluthner . He said that he tuned wide =
unisons.
I never thought about that until now.

Another friend from Bluthner told me some days ago that they are making =
a totally inverted grandpiano.
So the highest treblenote will be on the left side of the keyboard and =
the last bassnote on the right side.!!!!
How weird is that?
They are only doing one ( yet ) specially designed for an american guy.
The story is that he was walking around at the Frankfurk Musikmesse and =
asked all the manufacturers if the could build him this piano.
Everyone said now except Bluthner.
The instrument is not finished yet. Will be in some months, said my =
friend.

Imagine how music will sound on that piano or how difficult it would be =
to tune it.
To do the temperament with a mirror on the side to hit the right notes..

Totally inverted,
