Terry et al, My main tool(s), in my "Tuning Kit", are a Renner "Chopstick" and a variable angle voicing tool with three needles. These are ONLY for minor touch-up voicing. In my "Voicing" kit, I have 1-long, single needle, 2-2 needle holders, (each with different length needles), 2-3 needle olde style voicing tool handles with different length needles, 1- 3 needle tool with "sugar coating" needles AND (phew!), lastly, I rob my main voicing tool from my "gorilla kit", which is a really nice Yamaha voicing tool, (as Antares described). Along with this, in the voicing kit, is acetone, denatured alcohol, keytop fluid, water clear lacquer, appropriate mixing bottles with sprill proof caps. Various grades of "backed sandpapers for my paddle shoe-shining. Also, several blocks for resting hammers on and pieces of plywood for various supports, etc. Paint brushes, wire brushes ad nauseum. This "Kit" is about 3"x12"x18" in size. Hope this helps. Probably more than you wanted to know. <G> Regards, Joe Garrett, RPT, (Oregon)
