<div>Besides the inharmonicity problems associated with each piano, a pin couldn't possibly heat up or cool down enough to make a pitch change of more than just a few cents. . <br>
Obviously there are many "what if" factors, the least of which is a loose pin block.</div>

<div>A nice idea, but the cost of the unit and installation might be more than having the piano tuned by a "real" piano tuner.</div>
