We contacted Yamaha about the tuning instability. They sent a tech to check it out. He spent a whole day there tuning, regulating and said the piano was fine. When I gave him my background and told him I was tuning pianos before he was born and confronted him about the instability, he would only admit that it didn't do as well as some of the other pianos they make. They never did anything for the church and I am still tuning that POS.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=3>Al Guecia</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><B>From:</B> <A title=Tuneyourpianonow@aol.com href="mailto:Tuneyourpianonow@aol.com">Tuneyourpianonow@aol.com</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To:</B> <A title=pianotech@ptg.org href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">pianotech@ptg.org</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> Tuesday, February 19, 2008 7:47 AM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> Re: Yamahahaha</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV><FONT id=role_document face=Arial color=#000000 size=2> <DIV>I tune about 100 GA1E Yamaha pianos. Yamaha knows they have a problem with the ones built in Indonesia. The E is the designation. I have had about 10 of them replaced for tuning instability. Call or email Yamaha with your issues. They don't want unstable pianos out there. They are very cooperative.</DIV></FONT><BR><BR><BR> <DIV><FONT style="FONT: 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF; COLOR: black"> <HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px"> Delicious ideas to please the pickiest eaters. <A title=http://living.aol.com/video/how-to-please-your-picky-eater/rachel-campos-duffy/2050827?NCID=aolcmp00300000002598 href="http://living.aol.com/video/how-to-please-your-picky-eater/rachel-campos-duffy/2050827?NCID=aolcmp00300000002598" target=_blank>Watch the video on AOL Living.</A></FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
