"Old School Teachings"

Terry:
     I believe the jerk method does a quicker and better job of setting the 
pins on the first tuning. Just my opinion. Heck, don't listen to me. Willem 
can tell you I probably can't even past the tuning or technican RPT test. 
Remember , I'm just a 30 year associate who has only been rebuilding , tuning 
and refinishing but will probably  never be an RPT. The boys in Nashville 
said I had to wait 2 years before they would consider administering the RPT 
tests. Hell, I'm too old to wait that long. They also told them young kids in 
Nashville that the RPT's made the money. I smiled as I left the 
meeting....the only associate driving a new Cadillac. Maybe someday, me and 
my two best ole buddies in Birmingham will get good enough to be RPT.
