I tuned one in a store that had just uncrated it. It was about 20 cents sharp and the pins were so tight that all my Mahafey impact lever would do was loosen the tip. I could not tighten the tip enough to move those pins. Luckily I had one of those Schaff levers the designed for the Baldwin factory where the tip is secured with a bolt.

I had a new one yesterday that I was sure I would twist off pins, and they were snappy/jumpy. Mark Wisner, any thoughts?
