SAN DIEGO COUNTY CHAPTER
June Meeting:
No meetings for June or July.
Hello San Diego County Chapter!
We had another great session last month. Many thanks to expert technician Paul Rea for leading the session and to all who participated through their attendance!
Please note that we will not have a meeting in June or July.
Thanks are in order to Mark Adams, RPT for assisting our chapter in receiving a 1990's era Steinway 45 upright piano as a donation from one of his clients. This opportunity just came in on the heels of accepting a Young Chang console piano donation. Given that we have our C3 project underway as well, this means that we now have three pianos cued up for our technical sessions!
Here is a message from our chapter president, Brian Janey, RPT regarding the upcoming national convention and the status of our chapter piano projects:
"I look forward to seeing as many of you as can make it to the PTG convention in Arlington, Virginia! It's going to be pretty spectacular on a number of levels - it might seem a tad pricey, but when you walk away from it, you'll realize it was worth every dime.
The circumstance of the last few months of working on the Yamaha C3 has been really awesome. The turnout has been great and everybody is engaged with tools in hand. The next phase with the C3 is going to be a little bit more focused with regulation work, and we will likely pick that up in August or September. The chapter has been given a Korean console and a Steinway 45 for training on upright reconditioning and regulation that we will tackle down later in the year. The goal with each of these pianos is to doll them up for sale and put the money back in the chapter's coffers after expenses."
