If I remember right the Helpinstall piano was a fold up piano used by bands. I don't remember any particular problem. Have them set it up for you. It was 20 or 30 years ago that I tuned it. So if it is newer, it might be a completely different animal. Seems as if I had to plug the holes for the screws that held the plate in.

If I agree to take this piano job, the tuning, is there anything that must be removed in order to access the strings or is this Helpinstill Pickup located in a different area of the piano? This is something I'm not familiar with, well the brand name yes, but the Helpinstill Pickup no. Any ideas would be great or things to be aware of. thanks > Marshall > ps. Today I finished up a tuning. I tuned in a living room which became qutie dark as I finished up. As i finised up, the customers kids who were home asked if ineded light. Thank the Lord for my vision impaired skills in tuning, who needs sight right? :-) I'm fortunate to have sight, but if I can't use it i'm still in ok shape. > Marshall > > Marshall Gisondi Piano Technician > Marshall's Piano Service > pianotune05 at hotmail.com > 215-510-9400 > www.phillytuner.com > Graduate of The School of Piano Technology for the Blind www.pianotuningschool.org Vancouver, WA > > > > > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
