Interesting thread. Somebody asked what people charge for a tuning , and the only people who respond with a dollar figure were two Canadians, a guy in New Zealand, and somebody in Austria. I am sure this will be very useful to the person posing the question if he ever tunes in Canada, Austria, or New Zealand. HOLD ON! ---I just re-read the responses and saw that Brian Trout actually did answer the question of what he charges. Congratulations to this fellow, who actually has some guts, and to anyone else who answered the question with a dollar figure. Seems like Big Brother has got the Americans cowed. (To their credit, they did turn the thread discussion to one of the unfairness of sales tax and to how much plumbers charge. ) Bill Simon Phoenix. P.S. - I do not have a set fee. It starts at $55.00 and varies with distance to piano, type of piano, when last tuned, on a week-end or not, inconvenience, if it is in a church, etc. Not much of a conspiracy there, Big Brother.
