Oh boy, wilco, better not give anyone your location! I'm drooling already! I have two 21-chord Oscar Schmidts, one a nice one and one a laminate for knocking around. They both have pickups added. I currently have that laminated one tuned down a half step so I can easily play in B and E without cutting felts. I also have an old Chromaharp we're refitting that has four quick-change, 8-chord sets. If the tuned-down experiment works on all the arrrangements I've been killing my voice on (singing too low so others can sing along at our singalongs), we'll set that up in B, E, diatonically. I don't know yet what kind of tone it will have. If I really like playing diatonically, I'll probably convert the better Schmidt to B & E diatonic. I play all these tabletop and reversed around ("upside down") to save my chronic-tendonitis shulders arm out of trouble. I strum mine and hammer, and when I get to B & E on the Chromaharp I'll venture into melody-picking.

There are a scad of good old Autoharp threads around here I bet you would enjoy-- have a look around. Use the filter box with that word in it, and set the age back to forever, and they'll come up.

Why did you particularly want your song in Dm?
