>From: "Farrell" <mfarrel2@tampabay.rr.com> >You would pitch raise a rusty 1948 Acrosonic spinet that was 220 cents flat >for 1/2 your tuning fee? You would be looking at three or more passes >before >you were ready to tune! Terry, You must've not read my post completely...look again and you will notice that I stated: "in most cases" below. Of couse there are ALWAYS exceptions, like the acrosonic you mentioned, and i've encountered a few that were ULTRA flat, but very rarely. When/if i do, I always recommend at least TWO PR's or even 3, to help prevent/minimize string breakage, and increase stability. >>That means no matter how flat the piano is, in most cases, the aforementioned applies. I usually never have to do more than one PR to get it into the "ballpark".<< > > Terry Peterson > > Associate Member PTG > > Los Angeles, CA _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
