Holy cow!! So, I really loved this piano before the regulation, but wow! The action is smoother and faster, it even feels lighter (not that it was heavy before). He also did some very light voicing.

It sounds and feels amazing!! Wish I didn’t have to go to work tomorrow...

Excellent! I cannot wait to hear a recording of your new baby (and you playing it so wonderfully!)

I can’t help comparing it to going to the dentist and feeling how good I feel after a cleaning.

Steve, that's a pretty good analogy!!

How long was the tech there?

Ron, all day!!! He came at 8:30am, left for about 45 minutes at lunch, and then finished at 5pm (but then we chatted for about 30 minutes after that).

He said that the previous owner (the seller) had never had any regulation or other work done on it (besides tuning). That's what the seller told me before I bought, so that checks out of course.

He also said that the previous owner must have only played it right in the middle of the piano (the seller was a singer not a pianist, so not surprising) and he said he thinks it's a great instrument and in great condition. And now, of course it's in even better condition!!

Yes, even better: my violin fiend is coming over and we’re going to practice/play together. We’re giving a living room concert at the bridging of next month so we have a lot to practice!!
