So, a small grand and a large grand would have the same degree of inharmonicity in the treble, right? Now, as for the bass strings, I think I remember reading that smaller pianos tend to have thicker bass strings, which I assume are stiffer than thin ones. If so, then I would expect a smaller piano to have more inharmonicity in the bass than a larger one. Am I correct? Charles Neuman
