This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I have been tuning for a fairly large school district for 20 years and = doing a lot of small university work. When I started 25 years ago the = Yamaha's were kind of the hot thing, and still are really, so we worked = to try to be able to buy the Yamahas without bidding or working around = the bid process to get what we wanted. I had a call today from the = district about buying Conover-Cable pianos, I am doing some dealer work = there and the pianos are doing fine. We have some in other districts, = and the pitch stays very stable, the actions seem consistent. What I = have found with Samick products is that the bass is tubbier, the treble = brighter, but stability is very good. Is there a time where some tone = quality should be given for stability. I normally see 35-40c pitch = swings seasonally. School budgets do not allow for the tunings these = need. I figure no matter when I tune them they are out of tune at least = half of the time. Tune in August they are horrible by Christmas, tune = in January, they bite the dust in April. Just wondering what everyone = was recommending and why, stability, cost, tone, or the dealer's your = uncle?
