>From: "Rip Lowman" <lehjr at qwest.net> how stable is a piano that has just had a large pitch raise with overpull, say on the order of 50 cents or more, and then tuned immediately at A440? Usually I return after 6 weeks and have to tune each string again. But I never did pitch raise with an ETD. Just bought verituner pocket and still wait for the opportunity to test that. But of course I did overpull by ear. Should not be such a big difference. Once I had a amazing experience. I did a 100 cent or so pitch raise (2 passes) on a 1920 German Rawie upright in excellent condition. I returned after 6 weeks and the tuning was still nearly perfect! The customer called 10 years later again. Now the piano was only 8 cent flat and the overall tuning was not so bad. Unbelievable! Just once in a lifetime...
