This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hello, I would like to inquire if anyone else has observed excessive flag = poling of Petrof tuning pins. The piano: Model III. The place: = Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. The piano is heavily used for moderate = Jazz, (6-12 hours a day), in a lounge. The piano is tuned twice per = week. Stability seems to be a problem. This piano has an open faced pin block = which means that the pins stand upright and do not lean back as in a = conventional design. The coils stand 1/4" - 3/8" above the block. The = hypothesis is that the pins may be bending excessively due to the high = coils, making setting the pins more difficult. A possible cure would be to simply set the pins deeper into the block, = although this is speculative theory, (particularly since this is how it = was designed). Additionally this would add friction to the pins which = may contribute or create a new problem. Anyone experienced with this piano and had similar problems? If so what = solution? ------------------------------ Rob Goodale, RPT Las Vegas, NV Alan Meyer, Associate Las Vegas, NV ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
