    Hi, after changing my F string on my teifi harp the string isn’t in tune whenever I push my lever up but it stays in tune fine whenever my lever is down. In other words, the lever no longer raises the note by a perfect semitone. Does anyone have any advice on what could be causing this and how to fix it? Thanks.

    Is the string wound close enough to the lever? Sometimes after tuning the string extends on the pin too far for the lever and has to be re-wound. Also is the lever itself tight to the harp?
