<DIV>I like to strip the entire piano out, tune the temperament, then tune the
center strings in the treble. Then before tuning the treble unisons, I
check the center strings for any errors. Once I'm happy with them, I tune
the treble unisons. I tune the bass last, because the wound strings slip
at a different rate than steel strings and I want the steel strings stable
before tuning the bass. I use a temperament strip because it's
easier and quicker than moving a mute around for each
note. On a tunelab overpull tuning, I start at the low bass,
and tune center strings to C-8. Then I tune unisons. I do
this to save battery power, more than anything else.
