I disagree. I've seen too many on-pitch freebies that take a test blow well, but when a tuning hammer is put on them, they change at the slightest touch and stay there. That's where they are stable. I sure can't tell the relative section tensions of a string without moving something, and I don't see how anyone else can either. Especially after having just done a quick pitch correction over the entire piano, which is what my post is about. Ron N
