Me too. They've been paying $35 for what, 20 years now? -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of David Love Sent: Friday, November 27, 2009 4:03 PM To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] To Don, Mark, and Roger. Was Jeannie, etc. I like the service bond idea but wish they would pay more in line of the requirements. David Love www.davidlovepianos.com I think a lot of this discussion is from a fantasy world many piano technicians seem to be living in...are we really expecting a brand new piano to be regulated, tuned and voiced to a knat's hair before it will sell? Is this not a little self-serving...how many of you have talked about the need for their newly hung hammers to be played in before more voicing? I think these factory hammers have been pretty recently installed also...new parts...things change with playing and acclimation...I love Yamaha's Service Bond. I think more manufacturers should take the same approachh. I think of it as a breaking in period...wood, wire, wool... David Ilvedson, RPT Pacifica, CA 94044 _____ avast!
