Jurgen, I wholeheartedly agree! I always share with the customer what I see regarding their piano. Its up to them what to do with the information.

Perhaps I am reading too much into this, but if I am called to tune a piano and my opinion is that the client is wasting their money, then I believe it is my responsibility, morally and under the PTG ethics guidelines, to share that opinion with the owner and NOT keep it to myself... The argument: "I was just doing my job as I was told" has in the past been a defense/excuse for a lot of bad things....
