How Do I Adjust the Mechanism of My Lever Harp?
Folk harps employ either butter knife blades, hooks or semi-tone levers as transposing mechanisms. These may be adjusted if lack of pressure on a string is causing buzzing.
The semi-tone lever acts in a similar way to the butter knife blade but has the addition of a semi-tone post, which may be bent towards the string.
See the picture below for an example of semi-tone levers on a folk harp.
It is advisable with folk harps to turn the blades, hooks or levers into the open position when the harp is not is use to
prevent constant pressure on the blade or lever.
