This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi George, Any piano, can end up with loose pins. It is almost entirely due to the environment that the piano was in. Your piano has obviously been in a very dry environment, sometime in it's life. Having said that, there is one brand up here, that seems to have a large number of pianos, with the "loosepinitis", it is an Amherst Piano. I think they were so popular, that the company manufactured them with the wood not properly cured, as they were too rushed. I have never heard of that problem, with a Williams. Regards, John M.

I was wondering if someone has encountered loose tuning pins in a Williams[ Canadian] Piano. I have was attempting to tune one recently and was rather surprised to find such loose pins throughout the bass and tenor sections. The piano was only a spinit but was in exceptional condition other than its loose pins. Has any other tuners come across these Canadian pianos with similar problems.
