Hi Everyone,
I am not a tuner and I know nothing about it. BUT, my husband is.
My husband who was formally trained in Boston, Mass is going back to
school for graphic design, in which case this leaves us a with an
out-of-print copy of Owen H. Jorgensen's book: TUNING: The
perfection of eighteenth-century temperament, the lost art of
ninteenth century temperment and the science of equal temperament.
Complete with Instructions for autral and electronic tuning. Whew!
That's a long title.
So it brings me here in search of a piano tuner, or book collector,
in need of this book that can't seem to be found... ANYWHERE! I do
not have an exact price in mind, but I plan to sell it to the
highest bidder. Sound like ebay? Well for anyone interested I have
an ebay account as well as a paypal account which I can recieve
documented payments through, so there's no need to worry about
losing money.
Now I realize the purpose of this board is NOT to advertise and sell
things, but I thought where else can I find a bunch of people
looking for this book? And since you all seem to know a whole lot
more than me, here I am. I had also noticed some posts on the board
itself about the book being out-of-print and many seemed to be
disappointed they wouldn't be able to get a copy. So that is where I
come in.
If you are interested, the book is in practically brand new
condition and I would be willing to send pictures to anyone
interested. Please contact me @ megdanmak@sbcglobal.net and for
those of you wondering about my "reputation" you can go to ebay and
look up the name: megdanmak and see that I have 102+ positive
feedbacks which constitute the 100% positives I have. Thanks for
your time.
