<div> <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">He meant the popping decreased with each tuning. The tone and action on Pearl Rivers can be very nice. It's a shame some of them are difficult to tune. The same could be said for Dongbei pianos, BTW. </font><br>

<div><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">I think those Essex are made by
Pearl River, who makes pianos with popping aggraffes and sticky pins.
Some Pearl Rivers have taken me an extra 1/2 hour to tune, and others are
flagged "do not tune again". The Pearl River tech guy says the
popping gets better with each tuning, but I've yet to see that
happen. Bob.</font><br>
