Dear list, I recently did a tuning for a customer that had a 1870 Chickering square grand. Since they paid $3000 for in ( on Ebay), they would like to preserve their investment. I told them I would inquire about the possibility of installing a damp-chaser system. Does anyone have any experience or advise as to what sort of system would be suitable for this beast? The piano had probably been restrung at some point as modern tuning pins were installed and most were fairly tight, though I tuned it where it was at about 135 cents flat of A440. Any help here appreciated. Jim Love PTG Associate Midland, Tx.
