Thanks Bryan! Now I'll take someone's advice who poasted earlier on this thread (I think?) and attempt practicing with the middle stops pushed in. I'm caring for my parents (both in their early 90's) and they're very patient with my accordion practice....however, like most of us, they do need to get a little shut-eye from time to time.
Thanks again for the very interesting info on this wetness/dryness topic. It's very interesting! Liz
On what Rick said, of having his tuned at 10 cents. I have been talking to Jr on this. The accordion he is building for me, is going to be tuned wet and he told me your going to like this one he is going to tune it at 15 cents low to 2 cents on the high side in the key of D. Can't wait. he said it will be ready in three weeks.. Jim, here is Junior Martin's. phone number he will answer all of your questions on tuning.
