    A few days ago, an odd buzzing/ringing sound started coming from inside the lower half of the soundbox on my Ravenna 34.

    Hi, Shelby. The first thing to do is take the harp into another room to be sure it’s not a sympathetic vibration from something else in the room. They can seem to be coming very clearly from a particular point in the harp sometimes.

    Check to see if it has bolts and washers from the bottom of the column through the bottom of the soundboard. Sometimes those washers will buzz and rattle, especially after changes in the weather.
