Hi all,

Thought this might be of interest. This piano has been tuned six months ago
and three months ago (at which time the coils were tapped). 

Chang G-185 measured with Reyburn Cyber tuner before tapping

a0  0.41 a1   4.33 a2 -0.24 a3 -1.04 a4  0.72 a5  -1.71 a6   5.86 a7   2.37

After tapping

a0 -3.17 a1 -11.74 a2 -5.10 a3 -3.75 a4 -4.02 a5 -18.91 a6 -18.93 a7 -22.46

Strings were tapped at hitch pin, both sides of tail end double scaling and
at bridge tap.pin.tap tap tap.pin tap. I started on the sounding side of
the top string and made a u turn to end up on the sounding side of the next
lower string, except for the bass strings where I tapped at the hitch pin
and ended at the sounding length. Total time to do the tapping about one hour.
