Hi all... I am lovin' this list! I have a general question for everyone. I tuned a 1910 Harvard Piano this week. It was sitting at a whole step plus 20 cents flat. The interior has been maintained and the single bass strings have been replaced at some time. No major corrosion at the bearing points. I don't like to leave a piano lower than concert pitch if circumstances allow for a pitch raising. But I have always been hesitant to bring an older piano that far up in one visit. Am I being too cautious? Aside from the particular methods you might use to raise the pitch, what preparations do you make when you do a pitch raising? Do you have any special tricks you use? Thanks... Mitch Ruth DeMossville, KY _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
