I tuned a piano yesterday that was a first. It had been restrung 'on the cheap' somewhere through a music store. How do I know? Beckets weren't squeezed in and the wound strings on the tenor bridge were probably too much bother and too much expense so they just used plain wire :-( (small Stieff grand). But the real find was the refinishing. The entire inner rim was covered in green felt! When I opened it up, I wasn't sure whether to tune it or shoot craps :-) Ken Jankura RPT Fayetteville PA
