I turned down a college account once because they had a bunch of uprights in the practice rooms.? I tuned them all once, and it way ugly.? Funny thing is, some tune just fine, others are difficult, and a few are un-tunable.? I've one at the university that falls into the difficult category.? I tune it once per year,? not 4 times per year as I'm budgeted for.??

I have been tempted to refuse to tune Steinway uprights. I haven't ran into one, that I enjoyed tuning. I told one person, whose piano gave me a real hard time, that their would be a premium to tune it, the next time I came. She didn't call me again, and I am actually glad.

Greetings, ? ????????? Does anyone else out there feel that you need more time to tune Steinways? Is it just me or what? I am thinking of charging alittle more to tune them. I have been tuning for 5 years. ? Julia Gottshall, Reading, PA? Start the year off right.
