size=2>> Hello Don - I've frequently found, when being asked to =
tune a
piano for the<BR>> first time, that it's anything up to a =
semi-tone
flat. This I can't abide<BR>> and, if the piano merits it (and
considering it was built to withstand the<BR>> tension of A = =
440) I
jolly well bring it up to pitch there and then. I have<BR>> great =
success
in doing this with no repercussions. The piano sounds so =
much<BR>> better
- it actually almost says "thank you!" Sometimes I get one or =
two<BR>>
broken strings - but that's rare. And it's all done in 90minutes =
flat.
As<BR>> for your 4-5 cents flat I work with the London =
Philharmonic and
such people<BR>> and to tune anywhere short of A = 440 would be =
courting
a walk-out!<BR>> Michael G (UK)<BR>> <BR>> <BR>>
