Ra Byn James, <<SO............for those of you out there who use a Hale tuning lever with a Hale tip, which tip size do you use?>> I use the Jahn lever now, but still have the Hale as well. As you found out, the tip sizes are not the same. My new Hale #2 tips are larger than an older one that I have had for a while. I use a #2 for all pianos. The #2 on the Jahn lever is a little smaller than the Hale, but I like the feel of it on most pianos. <<they're too cheap not to own a few & keep in different places...........>> Exactly. I carry two extra #2 tips in my car with me. Overkill? Maybe, but at least I will always be able to find one. :-) John Formsma Blue Mountain, MS
