It has suffered a little damage to the sharpening levers and needs to replace a few. Do any of the Canadain catters know Ron's whereabouts, or if he is retired or passed on, where my friend might obtain replacement levers for his instrument. |

The important thing is to identify which type of brand of lever is currently on the harp. I would suggest taking a close-up photo of a couple of the levers. Harp Levers - some available types [Note: I don't know this company. I just did an internet search for a site which shows images of different brands of levers.] I'm in Australia and there is an excellent harp maker Harps and Harps Australia who could send the levers but I am sure that there are Irish harp suppliers or makers who could help your friend. Another source of information could be the Sylvia Woods Harp Center in Hawaii. I have been a customer of that company for many decades and they are very reliable. |
