Oooohhhhh, a huge can of worms. How the bass is tuned is how most artist
judge a piano. IMO.
I=B9ll say 95%---and I=B9m being a bit generous---of the tunings I follow up on
within 2 to 14 days---and usually in a well-controlled micro-environment of
studio, store, or expensive house/venue. (and remember, friends, we=B9re in
fabulous Mediterranean Southern California---stability made
flesh)....uhh...anyway, 95% of those tunings are from a little to a LOT
sharp in the bass, in my system. The trick, the challenge, the game, is to
get the note juuust on the flat side of =B3beatless;=B2 if you pay attention to
your body at this time
