You know, I hadn't sorted the small minority of people who have the junk off the piano by area of origin, but I imagine you're right. However, I can't think it is always training by their previous tuner, because some of them not only remove the case parts (if they can) but also pull the piano two or three feet from the wall. I'm surprised by how many assume that I'll need access to the back of the piano. Does anyone put the junk back on the piano when they're done? The only things I'll put back on are the light and/or heavy stuff if the customer looks like they'll have trouble lifting it. Susan
