David Love said: "Just came back to a piano that I service regularly after a prepared piano piece in which six bass strings (3 pairs of bichords) were damaged apparently by the pianist being called upon to scrape something up and down the length of the several pairs of strings. Of course, the windings are now rattling. The directors of this venue have issued previously a "no prepared piano" and "no reaching in" rule in order to avoid just this type of thing however it apparently fell on deaf (appropriate considering the nature of the music--ok cheap shot) ears. Just an FYI and a bit of vent. ^%&*#$%&($)%*($)^&(#$)" David, I truly sympathize with that! Utterly stupid things happen, when stupid people are involved! Hopefully, the "player", (I'll not call him a Pianist), will have to pay for them! If not, then someone needs to grow a backbone, imo. Sheesh! Joe Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
