s a professional piano tuner, I can tell you that over half of all piano tuners use some kind of electronic
aid. The best combination is to use the electronics to check on your ear, and your ear to check on the electronics. It actually
takes just as much skill and even more understanding of physics to use the electronic aid properly than to tune by ear. A
person with a good ear, basic mechanical ability and facility with tools, can usually make a badly our-of-tune piano sound
better. That's not the same as doing a professional job. If those using the piano are happy, more power to them. But even
with training, it takes dozens of pianos of practice tunings to be a fairly good tuner.

As a piano teacher
and professional pianist, I have played on a great many pianos. I have seen some really messed up pianos which were tuned
by an amateur. I have also seen some that were tuned by "professionals" that were also badly messed up. If you don't do it
right, you can permanently damage a very expensive instrument! Look for an experienced professional tuner, probably through
the local piano dealer, who uses the proper tools and a specialized electronic piano tuning instrument, and spends at least
two hours tuning and repairing your piano. Pay him/her around $60 or more and count it a bargain. This should be done at least
once a year or at any time that you have moved the piano. If it has been years since it has been tuned, it will take several
tunings done a few months apart to gently get it back into tune without damaging it. Remember that a piano is also a financial
investment and keeping it properly tuned will help preserve its value.
