My Grandfather was a teenager in that war. lol. He was always telling us stories about how they caught the "Tommies", stripped them, and sent them ao their way, as they had no prison camps. BTW, the British had the first POW camps of any war here, filled with women and children!!!

Hi John!
That would be awesome! I would definitely take you up on that. If you're serious, PM me.
I was a kid during the twilight years of the oscilloscope-type tuners. I remember being in 4th grade and almost crying because the tuner was so complicated. Thankfully, technology marches on, and I've got several tuners of various quality that you don't have to be an electrical engineer to read.
I kept my electronic keyboard at my parents' for a few years, and when I asked for it back, they sent it with an adapter I didn't recognize. Here's the conversation:
Me: Mom, are you sure this is the right adapter? It doesn't say Yamaha on it.
Mom: Yep, that's the right one.
Me: You're sure? Cause if you lost mine, I won't be mad, but I need to be sure before I plug it in. Even the right voltage adapter may be the wrong
polarity.
Mom: No, I'm sure. Go ahead and try it if you don't believe me.
*ufonium plugs the adapter into the keyboard, and immediately smoke comes out of the back*
Unfortunately, as you probably know, the pin block is likely more expensive to replace than the piano is worth. Has anyone tried replacing your pins with bigger ones? That can be pretty expensive too, but not as bad as replacing the block. Of course, you can chemically "dope" the pins too, but most piano tuners won't do that, and it is a temporary solution.
Man, I could BS about instruments all day.

Oh, but I'm hearing a beat....a jungle beat...it's the Monkey song! (from Disney's Jungle Book: " I Wan'n Be Like You"
"Oh, oobee doo
I wanna be like you ou ou
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too, oo, oo
You'll see it's true, oo, oo
An ape like me
Can learn to be human too, oo, oo"
