List, I just had a call about a Boston GP193 (7' ish) that's app. 10 yrs. old with a persistent tuning problem in the upper 2-3 octaves. The unisons won't stay in tune. The owner has checked with several technicians & one even told him that the problem was inherent in that age of that piano & that there's no fix for the problem that he'd heard about. Newer versions no longer have the problem, he said. I've never run across that particular one and have never heard of this (I've tuned very few Bostons). Has anyone else? Does anyone know of a "fix" for this problem, short of a redesign/rebuild? The piano is in a fairly large church and they now are planning on getting rid of it because of this problem. They don't really want to because they love the touch but they use it in a recording studio and it's "driving them crazy"! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
