Re: [Harp-L] Saxony slider button

[Slim Heilpern <slim@xxxxxxxxxx>]

So glad to hear this Ben! Last time I asked Seydel about it a few years back (I detest that button shape!) they acted like no one had ever mentioned it as being uncomfortable before. I was actually hoping for a replacement slider or button, but what you describe sounds reasonable for nowâ.

I did buy some âPlasti Dipâ to try and coat the button, but havenât gotten around to that experiment yet...

I guess if one used their finger tip to push the slider button that could be a good design but I don't. I push the slider with the palm-side surface of my index finger near the second finger joint from the end of my finger. The edge of the concave button causes discomfort in my finger after a bit of playing. This is something that I have never experienced with the usual convex button surface.
