[pianotech] Integrity (GH-1)

[Dale Erwin]

I've had the satisfaction of being instrumental in getting 2 of these miserable creature declared defective under warranty. Watch for tuning instability at the break and also both positive and negative bearing in the same board. Did I say horrible instability at the break?
    I found the issues on the very last day of the ten year warranty. Both client were encouraged by Yamaah to upgrade and so did I. They did and alls well that ends well.

Thankfully the dog only liked the tail      leg...not near me when tuning!  The other crud was in the entire      tuning pin area.  Some spots more than others and was a stain.       The pattern looks like someone tried doping the block with some      concoction by pouring it around the pins.  Anyway, whatever it was      was a mess and didn't work...pins uniformly borderline loose.       Everything else was typical GH-1 unfortunately.

          Any problems I need to be aware of besides            tuning?

Tuned (ahem) a GH1                      yesterday morning.  Beyond the GH1 of it...see the                      attached pics.
