Mark.. If you use FAC mode you will be using a wound string for the F which will give you a bad tuning. I prefer to go back to the old "F" mode and instead of starting on C-3 go to the first plain wire string and up from there. Then go to tune mode and tune the wound strings to the octave/fifth above the string being tuned. Check trhe intervals across the break...may need an aural touchup. The Baldwin scale is very poor on this piano, but Baldwin sold more of these than any other, so we are stuck with it! Best Dick RPT MT ---------- > From: Mark A.
