here it is. mystery solved. not rocket science. my editor,Zachary Meyers, a 10 year old unemployed tow headed male approves. he 'edited' my YAMBLING in both part 1 and part 2. Yambling is a fine new word he coined for the manner in which i tend to communicate.

Yes. I've had some tools for a while, but have only recently begun to apply all the knowledge that folks have so kindly put out there in the form of videos and discussion on the forum, etc.

I've always wanted to be able to adjust, fix and tune my own harps. I think it's another step to understanding how to play, and it gives you some immediate control over the playability of your instruments.

That being said, even though it's not rocket science, it takes a lot of practice and finesse to get any good at it!

I would much rather pay harp techs such as yourself and others to get some really great instruments, but I don't usually have the budget for it...so necessity plays a role in being able to resuscitate my harps, as well!
