[pianotech] PIANO BAR TUNING

PIANO BAR TUNINGBarbara, those look like a very handy tool to have. A lot less expensive than what I thought they would be. Which model do you have? I think the models with the digital display could also used to check the temp & hum when you're tuning a piano. Yes?

  Ted,

  You could get one of these data loggers and attach it to the piano for a while to see if it's a humidity/temp issue:

  Don Mannino has used them at Kawai (it was posted here and featured in the Journal.)  I've used mine a number of times for things piano related and not piano related.

  I tune pianos for a cruise ship and they are puzzled about the piano bar piano which goes out of tune readily.  Other pianos
  On the ship of the same model (Yamaha G2) are relatively stable and require minor changes. The piano is used 3 hours each
  night. I tune the piano every 2 weeks. What can I tell the music director?
