Brendan, why not use nail polish all around the reed versus only the bottom
2/3? This would save all the trouble of embossing. Turboharp makes a
Turboliner that claims to have a similar effect. I have one and it seems to
be an improvement, though my custom Spier harps are the best I have ever
played and they are embossed.

Vern, surely there are two tests to be considered. One is if the audience
can detect a difference, the other is if the player can detect a difference.

Meta: I'm enjoying all the sharing of ideas and information. Thank you.
