Thread Name: Autoharp Restringing
Subject: RE: AUTOHARP RESTRINGING
Love to see, Bill, but remember I'm playing upside down. No not me, the harp! LOL! I use just the one brass or nickel Dunlop .013 fingerpick. Clean tone and less sound of pick on metal on those damped strings... less swooping sound and whomping around when I am amped up... more variety of expression, from whisper to whine to well-all-right! BUT-- they're so lightweight they bend right around my fingertip and sometimes the pick portion starts to tear off from the fingerwrap part. Clearly I need metal implants in my picking finger but what's a girl gonna do?
