RE: Subject: Re: [Harp-L] Echo Vamper
Thank you to all for advice on removing the corrosion spots from the covers.
The clincher was G affirming that the covers are solid metal, not plated.
I've succeeded in not only making the harp comfortable in the mouth but also
not looking too bad at all - in the end I used a fine brass wire brush that
came with my rotary drill, proceeding very gingerly for about ten minutes
per plate. This removed the roughness without dulling the metal surface.
Result - one brilliant harp on which I can play melodies an octave lower
than on the regular C 10-hole.
