Takes a bit of time and a quiet spot, since this one is new it’s still settling a lot so it doesn’t hold too well yet, They bending/pressure the strings put on the neck and soundboard is noticeable in tuning, but unless several or more strings are off by a note or so it’s not a big deal
Hawkdancer:
For us old guys who can't hear, just hook up the electronic tuner and gently turn the key until the string is in tune. One string, one note! Adding levers allows you to sharpen that string.
Newindian, I will be glad to make some copies of some of the music I have and mail them out to you. But I like original music, too. What I have is mostly Celtic and traditional, with some folk songs mixed in.

I’d appreciate it but I can’t read music
Marc St Louis:
Looks pretty good. Your sound box looks like it might have been a bit hard to make. What did you use for the soundboard? One thing about a new harp is the strings will stretch for quite a while before they settle in
