Fwd: [Harp-L] Re: Where did Norton get a 2016 in A?

["Winslow Yerxa" <winslowyerxa@xxxxxxxxx>]

About twenty years ago Norton told me that Frank Huang had tuned a 
2016 down to A for him, also using solder.

There's no reason to doubt the version Stan tells - Norton is a harp 
tinkerer and general gearhead, and it's entirely possible that ten 
years later he had worn out the old 2016 reedplates and tuned himself 
up a new set.
