> >George Winston, Hi, Paul I tuned for him a few years ago. Bit of a character, for sure. Don't be intimidated by the instructions, just be sure the piano is well-regulated and the unisons are really sweet and stable, especially in the treble. He has a whole batch of thin rubber wedge mutes which he lays on the front length of whatever notes he wants touched up at intermission. I noticed that some of what he wanted touched up didn't have bad unisons, just minor voicing deviations -- so I'd suggest getting the treble voicing really even in the capo sections. He likes to work in the middle of the night, and he kept completely to himself, so I didn't rush forward, didn't try to shake his hand, etc. I got the impression that he wasn't hostile, but likes to keep his own psychological space as completely separated from strangers as possible. Maybe this was just our place, or just that day ... your mileage may vary. It went fine ... and he later told the Arts Center Director that he liked the piano.
