Lesson
n° 3: Changing a broken string
|
|
|
This is the knot you should make with the new string. A tip: you may tie the string to a tiny wooden dowel or a big paper clip! |
 |
|
Get the string
go through one of the holes inside the sound box.
|
|
 |
The other end
of the string (the one without knot) reappears above the soundboard
(left hand).
|
|
|
Make
this end of the string go through the hole of the matching tuning peg.
|
|
|
 |
Finally, make the rest of the string coil a bit over the tuning peg, then tune the harp by moving the tuning key towards the front of the harp. Then you can cut the extra-string, but keep it if it's still long enough to replace the string another time! A tip: you can usually replace a string by the spare string for the note just before or after: this can save you time and money!! |
