[Harp-L] Chromatic repairs

[Slim Heilpern]

Hi Richard -

There are quite a few out there, but I’m guessing the biggest problem you’ll face is lead time, one month might seem like a lot, but most of these guys tend to have a significant backlog (at least that’s been my experience).

I’ve had work done in the past by the following 3, all have done excellent work:

Steve Malerbi
Walter Peterman 
Michael Easton

I’ll send you their contact info offline….

- Slim.

It's been a while since I had any work done on these instruments, and I don't remember who did it last time.  If you've had experience with a terrific harp tech WHO WORKS ON CX12s, or if you are one, please advise at your earliest convenience.
