[Harp-L] 545 handling noise

["Jim Koryta" <jkoryta@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

In my humble opinion it didn't adversely affect tonal quality. (yeah I know, what tonal quality?)
And again, IMHO, it is much better to cut down on the handling noise that was bothersome. 
Wonder how Butterfield handled that? I used about two wraps of Scotch 33 electrical tape and
just caught the bottom edge of the head.

 what are anyone's opinion on taping the floating head of a Shure 545 to 
cut down on handling noise, does it or does it not cut tonal quality to 
a point where it is a factor to be of that much of an issue
