There's many fine harp technicians out there who do first-rate
customizations. Who out there does, or can do, restorations on old
stuff? I have a couple of old (1900 or so) harps (Wm Thie, Boehm) that
could use the master's touch. No embossing or major retuning; nothing
like that. Just removing the reedplates and giving them a good
cleaning, reshaping a pressed in coverplate, etc. Everything -
reedplates and coverplates are made of zinc (not corroded), by the way.
The reeds are brass.
Any recommendation?
Thanks,
Paul N.
