> I discovered this in 1952. I had just tuned a spinet for >delivery and while it was sitting on the dolly ready to go on the truck, >I played a few chords across the break. The octaves did not match, so >I took the piano down and started to retune it, but it sounded OK back >on the floor. So, I put it back on the dolly and it was out of tune >again. > Or you could do the opposite, such as myself: I tuned a spinet on a dolly because no strong young men were available. A week later the customer called complaining about the tuning. I went out and sure enough, the bass had departed from the plainwire to a radical degree.
