Re: [Harp-L] slider troubles



And one more thing, if the mouthpiece was put on backwards, that would explain why the spring broke so quickly.

Hi David

The harp in question is a new custom harp which had a bad spring in it
(spring broke after a few hours of use). The slider felt rough with the old
spring and it still feels rough after I installed a new spring. The
roughness is felt at the beginning of the push and at the end of the
release.
