Hi Geoff, If she has a DC system and can't be bothered with using it I'd charge her for mileage and tuning on every visit. Until it has both a bottom cover and a string cover plugging it in may be almost pointless. Ron, next time you fine tune a piano snug up the "plate lags" as you call them after you are done--and then tell me it doesn't affect stability. Jon, I do find that where I live sloppy coils do add to unison instability as well as over all stability. Perhaps we live on different planets?
