    I have a lever harp that has levers on C,F, and G. How should I tune it to get the maximum value of these levers? What keys can I play it in? What would be the next best levers to add?

    There won’t be a whole ton of chromatic music played on it, but it’s a really nice harp and I want to be able to use it more often than I am right now.

    Thanks for your help!

    You’d want to tune it to C with no levers engaged. that will let you play in the keys of C, G (F#), D (F# C#), and A (F# C# G#). Those
