On a more serious note, is there a typo here? Yes, I meant 3 half steps - middle c would be an "a." Technic - raise the pitch as fast as possible. I performed about 4-5 passes on that piano before even attempting to tune it. Each pass should take no longer than 15 minutes each. For pitch raising I like to tune a quick temp. in about 2 minutes, proceed to tuning octaves all the way to the top, then come back down tuning the right string, then go back up again tuning the left string. Then I pull the bass up. Then I do this procedure over again and again until the piano is a few cents above a440. Proceed to tune.
