Greetings, 
  I must be missing something here.  Does she want you to tune it for free? 
Seems to me that equipment that is in bad shape and needs work is exactly 
what the technician who is trained to work on that equipment is supposed to be 
looking for.  If I instinctively know that a job is not what suits me, the best 
thing for everybody is to decline the job.  That is the really cool part of 
being self-employed;  we get to shape our clientele rather than the other way 
around.  ( I own a 1885 upright that is a tremendous instrument)
