Okay, gotcha. But I still think it is a far more legitimate and professional repair than your wording suggested.

The question was not whether it is an effective treatment, it was whether you would offer a guarantee. I would not. If you have to CA the pinblock the block is compromised. Im not saying it doesnt work but I wouldnt offer a guarantee. What if the block fails after your application? While your application would not have caused that you might be held responsible for replacing the block if you offer a guarantee.

I only ask because words like "extreme measure" and "salvage a bad situation" make no sense to me, based on years of experience with darned near miraculous results and the many, many similar testamonies of other techs. It isn't appropriate for a grand piano rebuild, perhaps, but it sure as heck is THE treatment of choice for that old upright, old spinet, or old console when the alternative is a bonfire.

Its an extreme measure to try and salvage a bad situation. In fact, I would be explicit that the results cannot be guaranteed.

What kind of warrantee do you offer on your tuning??? Joe Goss RPT Mother Goose Tools imatunr at srvinet.com www.mothergoosetools.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Alan Barnard To: pianotech at ptg.org Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2007 9:56 AM Subject: Pricing Pinblock Treatments I'm wondering what folks out there are charging, typically, for CA treating an upright block, maybe expressed as a percent of tuning fee or hourly rates. Also, are you offering a warrantee? Alan Barnard Salem, MO I live in a gated community, but they let me out for good behavior. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
