Hi Brian, The FAC by far is better, For two reasons. The pages are just the average of several pianos of that kind and can not take into account the changes in production or the small changes due to humidity swings. Secondly the numbers can be changed without ones knowledge by opperator error and not discovered untill much extra work is needed. IMHO!
