Hi Ed

Burn baby Burn.

You know for thirty years I have been tuning pianos and all I ever tried to
do was make them sound as good as I could (some better than others). I have
never had a lesson (but read a lot) and have taught 5 others to tune +. I
like tuning with almost pure fifths throughout the treble and some of the
bass and the piano sounds nice to me.
The mind boggles that for all these years I may have been tuning Well
Reversed because I am left handed (grin). I was told by a not to be named
pianist that I tune the bass better than anyone else but John Rocks
(deceased) tunes the treble better so I guess I tune a piano to a Well
Reversed and a Reversed Well at the same time but I am sure that I start of
with ET.  You know The Extra Terestral.
