[pianotech] loose tuning pin

[Paul McCloud]

Hi, Seles:
    I assume you are tuning your piano, but you are not tuning for others as professional.  Am I correct?  It appears your piano needs some repair, which often happens that the tuning pins won't hold up to the tension on the strings.  If you would like someone to come and help you evaluate the problem, I suggest you go to the Piano Technicians Guild website www.ptg.org and do a search for a technician in your area.  "Two heads are better than one".  You can get many ideas about how to care for your piano by hiring an experienced person to help.  It is hard to diagnose the problem on the internet, especially if we don't know you and how much experience you have.  Let us know how you are able to tune your piano, if you tune by ear or use a tuning aid/tuning machine.  We can give some advice, but we need to know more about you and the piano before we can offer advice. 
    Good luck.
