    Thank you for your suggestions just to clarify a few things. The kit came from the US and it was made here. It has a specific sound of low mellow lute come classical guitar come harp in nylon gut and fibre core wire on the last 3 strings and with reasonable tension. It is standard combination but only a few around. It is only for Medieval music and recording my own healing relaxation music which does not work to well if you are annoyed with the harp : )
    It cost that much to send from state to state within Australia.

    All of my harps from Lyon and Healy, Dusty strings, Triplett, all arrived with perfect regulation and work wonderfully, tune beautifully never caused me a problem. But they pack extremely well, some smaller companies have not been so great.
    I have so many tuners with stick it, clip it, and the small Snark it, Iphone it even. But it sounds like I need to go into a higher range of tuner with greater options and learning curve. There is no one here in Canberra that could work with me on the folk harps. In Canberra you are either Grand Concert Harp performer or harps don’t exist, which has affected any chance of getting the folk harp scene going.
    Yes it has been mentioned to me about the theory of temperaments but that would not explain why just one harp is misbehaving
    and all the other 9 harps sound spot on, would it?
    Plus I would need some significant know how. I will see what I can dig up and apply.
    I have some incapacities and I can’t do a full regulation or even fixing 5 levers when it came, caused me a lot of grief.
    Many thanks
    Rosey
