[pianotech] personal question- where did you learn PT?

[phil at emvkeys.ca]

Hi Zoe

I think ideally the best situation is attending full time at one of the 
several fine Piano Technology Institutes coupled a mentoring 
relationship with an experienced technician. As this was not possible 
for me I  chose to enroll in the Randy Potter program and I reinforce my 
learning by attending as many as possible of the national and regional 
conventions, seminars, and chapter meetings available to me. Soaking up 
some of the incredible knowledge represented on this listed is my 
day-to-day sustenance. I read the PTG  Journal from cover to cover as 
soon as it arrives and retain it as a ready resource.I'm also finding 
that as the pianos I service increase in quantity and variety, so does 
my confidence, understanding and quality of tuning.

I'm confident that others will have more valuable insights
