Sanderson Accu-tuner

[Pianoman]

On many pianos you can get a better bass tuning by switching off the FAC 
mode and going the B2-F#5 mode as in the original tuning mode all the old 
SATs and the new ones still have..  It is not hard to compare the 
superiority of measuring each note going down into the bass.
