    The ONLY time I might use a "stock" tuning is on spinets, and even then
I find that I have to fudge them a little to make them work. I have one that
I can use for Wurlitzer spinets, and amazingly enough, the one I have for
Baldwin Accrosonics works for the smaller ones. Other than those two, I
don't use the twenty that are on my machine. The one's I have are the top
twenty from Bob Conrad that came loaded on the machine. Ted, if you have
twenty on your machine, it would be easy for me to send you some figures to
see if they're the same twenty on mine, and if they are, I could send you
the list privately.
