<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>A question </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I noticed I tune with the the key on =
big grands
(maybe pianos too).I turn the pin some and then I beat the key to hear =
were the
string moves</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Like if I raise the pitch, I turn =
the pin
close to were I want the pitch and then I beat the key to see if the =
string
raise to where I want it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The opposite it if I want the =
pitch down.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I turn the pin intune then I beat =
the key to see
if it moves out. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I'm very close I give the pin some =
pressure with
out moving the pin, then I give the key a hard blow to =
move the string
and pin intune.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I end with a hard blow to see if I =
can "get it
out of tune"(like Bill B. told me). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's like I tune with the =
Key! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I prepare it with the hammer and =
pin.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I found instruments with bad =
regulation hard
to tune.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Do anybody have a comment on this? Am I =
on the
right track or totally gone?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks!</FONT></DIV>
