Hello Matthew Todd, David Love et List
I keep records of the pitch variation of the pianos at my schools. I try =
to keep them all at the same pitch - if possible. They do, however (like =
the value of shares) tend to go up as well as down. Since I am always =
the "last tuner" I know exactly what is going on. In an old piano I take =
it that the sound board is in good condition if the pitch goes up - and =
I tell my clients so. This makes them happy.
Regards from a beautiful sunny morning in the Downlands

Michael

the need arises. =20

    Hey Guys,

    I had a quick question.  I tuned someone's piano today.  When I got =
to it, it was just a tad bit sharp.  Can pianos go sharp when they go =
"out-of-tune", or is the previous tuner to blame?

    Also, I just got my first knick in my rosewood handle while I was =
tuning.  I almost cried, but I held it together pretty good.  They say =
the first scratch is the hardest.

    Thanks,
