When shooting for an ideal touch weight (how easy or hard it is for the player to press the keys) parts replacement may be necessary and/or the capstan may need to be moved to achieve a better action ratio. Regardless, the leads in the keys will need to be weighed off. Old leads need to be removed, holes plugged, and the keys re-weighed. This is a quick video showing how we plugged the original...

    Is there any way to enhance the mute while at the same time not hindering the overall sound quality too much? I live in an apartment and really need to have a very good mute. I tried doing this myself but can't quite get the perfect balance just yet. It's either too loud or the sound quality is average and some notes played at mf sound pp and some mp

    1:00 Here’s an update: a few months later I got a call from the client that the buzz came back. I ended up returning to her home and removing and twisting each bass string (for free). No small expense on my part as it took 2 to 3 hours, but it was the right thing to do. So in short, the lowering and raising of the pitch temporarily got rid of the buzz, but it was not a permanent fix. When I was done with the job the second time, I told her that if the buzzes come back again that the next step would be to replace all of the base strings, and quoted her a four digit price. I haven’t heard from her again, so I am really, not sure if the buzzes have returned once more, but at least she is now empowered with the correct information, and you and I have all learned something in the process!

    Nice work. Thanks for providing the opportunity to watch a full piano tuning. I am just getting started as a tuner and it's been a huge learning experience every time. I do prefer the sound of using electronic tuning apps though. I'm not sure I like this temperament, but your skills are certainly better than mine on unisons.
