Santino Balduzzi possessed several personality characteristics that ultimately led to his success as a tuner. He was innately curious about all things, and he loved to experiment in his search for solutions to a mechanical problem, often trying out many iterations in the search for an answer. Documenting his failures and solutions was a routine part of his experiments, and he truly practiced the maxim “Living is learning, and learning is living.”
