This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment As a very talented tuner once said to me: A good ear to hear intervals doesnt make a good tuner. Most of the work = is within the actual use and handling of the tuning lever. I like to = look around at piano stores/music shops and I've heard this 'buy an ETD = and tune your piano yourself' several times actually. I feel sorry for = the ones that buys this talk, since owning a good ETD doesnt make you a = good tuner (not by far). Think back to the time when you begun learning to tune the piano. Wich = part was hardest? Be honest! It wasnt the listening part, was it?=20 A serious pianist doesnt have the time to learn how to tune the piano. = Not even with an ETD, since he or she will most likely end up realizing = that setting the pin alone, is a really hard thing to do. That will make = the pianist end up tuning instead of playing. Furthermore: The pianists I know wont just let anyone to fiddle inside = their piano. The last person they would let inside it is probably = themselves. As long as there is real pianos who needs pianotuners, there will always = be work for us, but just like the market for digital pianos have = 'stolen' parts from the traditional ones, this will probably happend = with the tuning in some degree. I doubt however that it will be as big. Tuning a piano isnt a thing you can just learn how to do by getting an = ETD, and that will probably many of the ones who try realize after = breaking some part/string.=20 Daniel Lindholm / Stockholm Sweden ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
