Christopher, Ever tuned one? I service several and the first time the tuning took 2 and a half houres. Since then all are tuned regurly every year and only usually 15 min extra tuning time. The problem seems to be in the rendering of the string and tendency for the tuning pin to flag pole a bit. My new shaft seems to help a bit. 10 1/2 inches long 1/2 inch surgical steel six sided with a ball handle and #3 tip.
