What's a fair price to charge for tuning a piano

[Farrell]

I charge about the same as you, and just a couple weeks ago I got a call 
from a prospective client and was told the same thing.

That's the only time that has happened to me in many years.

Keep in mind that there are many folks out there who read the "Cracker Jack" 
instructions on how to tune a piano, bought a lever and a couple mutes and 
call themselves piano technicians. Big difference between them and someone 
who is properly trained and continues to hone their skills. Ya get what ya 
pay for.
