Hi everyone. I´m new on board. I love this forum and I´m sure that I´ll learn a lot from all of you.

I´ve just purchased a Hammond 44 HP melodion and I love it, but I have noticed that some keys are not completly tuned. I guess as time go by, this problem will be more obvious, so I´ll someday have to tune it anyway. However, because is´s completly new, I think it should be right in tune. First time I played it, it seems to be better. I´ve only played it two days, not for a long time, and some keys have flated…. Is it normal? Mabye it needs more time to stabilize the pitch? Detuning is not too obvious, but when I played in octave I can appreciate clearly, and ahhhggghh…. Mabye is because a bad use from me? I bought the instrument in Japan, by ebay, and and Spanish, so I dont know…..Tax, custom…..

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance for your help.
