Fred,
This happen not too long ago, and caused me a great deal of
embarrassment.
Late Saturday PM a well respected music teacher called in a panic could I
please come and check two notes on her piano as she was having a recital in
her home that evening. Her usual tuner had tuned the piano that morning but
had taken off out of town for the week end.
No problem being a good Samaritan.
Simple problem two notes in the killer octave of a U1 with loose hammer heads.
In a rush I failed to wipe excess glue from the joint. The lady was not too
pleased when the two notes would not play at all that evening.
Some glue had run down the shank and firmly fixed the shanks to the back
rail cloth.
I wish to remain anonymous
Duh!!!!!!!
