<WBR>Al<br> <br> All the suggestions you've gotten for the stability are good. But the stability problem might not be related to your technique, or the piano. Ask your customer about recording equipment, especially lights, that he places over or under the piano when he records. <br> <br> <div style="CLEAR: both">Willem (Wim) Blees, RPT<br> Piano Tuner/Technician<br> Honolulu, HI<br> 808-349-2943<br> www.bleespiano.com<br> Author of <br> The Business of Piano Tuning<br> available from Potter Press<br> www.pianotuning.com</div> <br> <br> -----Original Message-----<br> From: AlliedPianoCraft <AlliedPianoCraft@hotmail.com><br> To: Pianotech List <pianotech@ptg.org><br> Sent: Sat, 12 Jul 2008 3:23 am<br> Subject: Tuning a Kawai Grand RX-2<br> <br> <div id=AOLMsgPart_2_8de702bb-51e7-4abc-bb65-ce47e789d950> <div> <BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><SPAN class=Apple-style-span style="WORD-SPACING: 0px; FONT: 12px Helvetica; TEXT-TRANSFORM: none; COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); TEXT-INDENT: 0px; WHITE-SPACE: normal; LETTER-SPACING: normal; BORDER-COLLAPSE: separate; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0"> <div><FONT face=Tahoma size=2></FONT></div> </SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE></div> <div><br> <FONT face=Arial>List,</FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </div> <div><FONT face=Arial>I have a customer with a Kawai Grand RX-2. I am having a problem in the 2 treble sections. As I have stated on this list, I am not a proponent of excessive pounding, but it's what I must do on this piano to gain any tuning stability. At the last tuning I applied some Protec on the treble strings at the Capo with just a little improvement, but not nearly what I would like. This customer is using this piano to record a CD and needs it to stay in perfect tune. I must go and touch-up the treble about once a month. Any thoughts on this? </FONT></div> <div><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </div> <div><FONT face=Arial>Al Guecia</FONT></div> </div> <div id='u8CAB25AA840B499-1720-5269' class='aol_ad_footer'><FONT style="color: black; font: normal 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF;"><HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px">The Famous, the Infamous, the Lame - in your browser. <A title="http://toolbar.aol.com/tmz/download.html?NCID=aolcmp00050000000014" href="http://toolbar.aol.com/tmz/download.html?NCID=aolcmp00050000000014" target="_blank">Get the TMZ Toolbar Now</A>!</FONT> </div>
