size=2>> Hello Don - I've frequently found, when being asked to =
tune a
piano for the<BR>> first time, that it's anything up to a =
semi-tone
flat. This I can't abide<BR>> and, if the piano merits it (and =
considering
it was built to withstand the<BR>> tension of A = 440) I jolly =
well bring
it up to pitch there and then. I have<BR>> great success in doing =
this with
no repercussions. The piano sounds so much<BR>> better - it =
actually almost
says "thank you!" Sometimes I get one or two<BR>> broken strings - =
but
that's rare. And it's all done in 90minutes flat. As<BR>> for your =
4-5
cents flat I work with the London Philharmonic and such people<BR>> =
and to
tune anywhere short of A = 440 would be courting a walk-out!<BR>> =
