My piano tuner has advised me to not use my store bought wool string cover. He says that it is overheating the plate and causing an unstable tuning. Does this make sense to you?

@SmellsLikeABeer - Welcome to the forum and to the Alfred's Level 1 thread in particular. Don't worry if you're learning on a keyboard or if you don't have a teacher. I think most of us on here are learning by ourselves, so just try to enjoy your

My Sustain pedal is squeaking - and the squeak is originating from the pivot pin. How do I go about addressing this myself? (Won't need it tuned for another 4 months; would rather not wait till then). Thanks.
