I've had a few calls recently similar to one yesterday... after explaining that "basic" tuning is x dollars and a pitch correction (a rough tuning to get it close to correct pitch) is y dollars extra, "The piano's only out of tune in the middle" Mmm hmm, I see. What term do others use to distinguish a fine tuning from a pitch correction?? I always wonder if I'm getting my point across by saying "basic" or "fine" or "regular", then immediately continuing into the "if it's been a long time" spiel. Or maybe I just need to charge x+y dollars and do the full-service thing, and if it needs p/c then that's their fullness for that visit?? Especially since many many many of these are first-time visits for me.
