Yesss I’m so angry at him lol. I came home the other day and found he dragged them around the house and none of the anchors were on them. Probably my fault though for not putting them up where he couldn’t get ahold of them!
Also, thats a good idea however, I don’t have any 5th octave strings :/ SUCH A BUMMER!!!!! But I just started learning harp. These are the first strings that have broken (with the exception of one other) so I’ve been just buying them as they’ve broken. I didn’t really want to invest in buying a full set or anything right now just because of how expensive strings are :/ Any other ideas of something I could use?
I just looked inside my harp actually and noticed that the 4th C didn’t have an anchor to it (the two strings around it don’t have anchors) so that one should be good. But I’m wondering…would it be a terrible idea if I used a short nail in there for an anchor? The piece that the anchor/knot rests upon is raised from the back of the soundboard so I don’t think the head of the nail would damage (or even touch) it. Would this be a terrible idea? Other than the fact that I’d have to watch my fingers if I reach in there lol.
Haha, I don’t even remember how much it was selling for but it was too much for me :/ But then again, its going to take me awhile to afford any harp myself lol (I’m renting one for now)
Also, I’m wondering how you managed to get a 175 million year old ammonite set in there? Was it yours? How did you acquire it?
Lyn, this is SO random but I came across this post the other day and saw your AWESOME harp. Then last night I had a dream and your harp was in it lol. I don’t really remember well but I saw it in a shop and wanted to buy it so bad!
Have you got any more photos of it yet?No its brand new, it had just been brought out of the factory the day before I went to go get it. So thats probably part of the problem, is that it hasn’t really adjusted and/or “settled” into the climate. And I have to pay for the strings. Its a rent to own. I just talked to the woman at L&H and she recommended I wait a couple more weeks before changing out the strings to nylon- if I decide to do that, and because the weather here has kinda been crazy, so hopefully it’ll get more steady, I guess
