Hi Everyone!
Dave the lighting in your rose photo is really pretty.
Great color too. I am surprised that the rose bushes are still hanging on.
Lets see if I can remember how to attach a photo.
I won these two Oscar-Schmidt Autoharps (cheap!) on an auction.
It was risky because the older models from the 70s have a design flaw where after many decades
the bridge that anchors the strings begins to pull up and subsequently warping the top (under the strings).
There is a fix that requires removing the bridge plate and the bridge and drilling 5 new holes for sheet metal screws and drilling into the bridge and wood
to arrest the movement of the bridge.
They almost ALL will need this procedure.
DH applied the fix to the furthest one and the one up front is still ok but will have the process done when I get new $trings.
I had one of these when I was a teenager. One of the harps shown here will be a gift for DD.
A set of new strings run over $100.
(hardly worth it!)
But they both have decent strings and are able to stay tuned.
