Dear Mark Graham: since you have already heard the standard refrain, I will try not to bore you. However, in my 30 years of experience, I too have "tried to force pitch on a piano". It has NEVER WORKED FOR ME ....not even once. If I am not willing to raise or lower the beast first....establishing the pitch to which I hope to "concert tune", I have only wasted my time. I have not accomplished the desired result. My experience only. Sorry to have to disagree. Thank you, Ricard de La Rosa PRO PIANO
