Pianos, Piano Tuners and Their Problems

Here is a a technical book of equal value to apprentice and expert. The reader is guided through the diagnosis of a whole range of pianistic problems, as well as problems inherent in many makes of piano and is shown the solutions. There is too, a whole chapter showing the way to improve on the standard tuning which is taught in colleges, a process the author is constantly experimenting with.
After 50 years in the profession he still loves as much as when he started, George Booth finds piano tuners and technicians still calling on him with problems their training has not equipped them for. But this is no dry textbook, for the author uses incidents from his life to make his points. His hope is to turn technicians into enthusiasts always striving to make their work better; his own enthusiasm shines through every page.
