[Harp-L] out of the box



I mentioned in a post a while back that I got a Golden Melody (my first
in a number of years) that was, to a sp20 player, stiff and airy - in
other words, bad / sluggish response.  I also mentioned that I know next
to nothing about harp tech work (disasterous attempts at tuning...random
success with gapping..generally timid about the whole process).

Anyway, what are some basic things one can / should do when your out of
the box harp is, like mine, stiff and airy?  Please speak in simple
terms to me...I was raised by a pack of academics, and have few tool
skills, but I do have a LO repair kit.  

No controversial topic here....just asking for advice.  Thanks!!
