<html> <body> Aart, No, your regular tuning hammer will not fit! However, I've done a lot of harpsichord tunings and have yet to know of one that didn't have a tuning hammer that came with it. Now, whether it's there or not when you get there to tune it is another story! :-) I ALWAYS make sure first! There's also two possibilities of tuning pins. One is the one which is similar to a regular piano tuning pin, except smaller! (Which I MUCH prefer!) The other is a rectangular type which needs a special tuning lever. We have one of those at the university and I DON'T like it! Thankfully, our Fortepiano reproduction has the "regular" tuning pin. Much easier to tune. IMO. BTW, make sure you know what pitch level they want (415 or 440). And what temperament? Is it an "adjustable" keyboard? Do you know how to shift it, if necessary? Tuning a harpsichord "can" be much more complicated than tuning a "normal" piano! :-) Avery At 07:51 PM 2/14/2006, you wrote: <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Hello All.
