Terry, My only "real" problem was with a relatively new one I took care of while still living in San Angelo, TX. Every time I was called to tune it (app. 2-3 times a year), I had to do either a pitch raise or a pitch lowering job. I checked everything I could think of but could find no problem. Even talked to Roger with Bösendorfer. I finally asked the customer if he had a climate control system in his air-conditioning system. He said yes and I asked how long it'd been since it had been checked out. A long time, so he did. It wasn't working. Once it was, I had no more tuning problems with it at all.
