Ron, Just because Steinway invented the duplex scale doesn't make them impervious to imperfections in their tuning. It also doesn't obviate our interest in correcting these imperfections. By the same token it does give us, as technicians, an opportunity to contribute to the piano tone of their, as well as other instruments that purport this feature, by fine tuning them. I would suggest to you that this is an opportunity to enhance the piano tone of many instruments rather than an opportu;nity to criticize the ir design or preparation. Dan Franklin
