Unlikely. This tuner is suitable for zithers and autoharps that are small enough to fit in your lap. Your full-size harp, I assume, has larger tuning pins, necessitating the use of a larger tuning hammer. I'd go to Lyon and Healy's website or give them a call to find out more information.

On ebay, I recently purchased an old 12 bar Autoharp. When we moved a few years ago, I was able to get rid of mine. I also seem to have gotten rid of the tuning wrench. There is no way around the fact that the tuning pegs require a four-point socket. A standard 3/16 12 point socket will not grasp the screw. This is a good one. It's more than I wanted to pay, but after doing some research on less expensive options, I decided to go with this one because of its durability. I despise having a one-time-use tool that I'll only use once in a while, but this one is perfect.
This is an excellent tool that is well worth the additional cost. For this Music Maker harp, I used a Snark and tuned it to 432hz for a richer tone. On each string, 432hz is about three bars from the bottom.
I wanted another tuning key (like an instrument) from Music Makers, but I wanted wood (REAL wood) at a reasonable price, and this tuning key fits the bill! It's sturdy and solid, and I prefer the T-shaped version. This harp's design is based on the L-shaped harp. Because of the angle I tune this harp at, I shaped the one that came with my Reverie Harp. br>br>Note: If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, try using the words "creative+ para This tuner is for instruments with a smaller range of tuning. It's also appropriate for my 29-year-old daughter. I have a string lever harp, but it doesn't work on my full-size harp. size 39- harp made of strings br>br>AWESOME VALUE FOR REAL WOOD AND THE FACT THAT IT IS SO STRONG. I tried a lot of different ones before settling on this one.
Despite being made in Asia, this product will not fit the current crop of Oscar Schmidt autoharps, which are also made in Asia. I'm keeping it because I'm about to buy a vintage American autoharp, and there's a good chance it'll fit. In any case, with some careful filing, I should be able to re-create the situation. The tuning hammer should be a perfect fit.
A 3/16-inch square T-shirt tuning wrench in the shape of a tuning fork Fits 0. Tuning pins and pegs with a diameter of 198mm. (For those of you who can't find this information)br>br>I swear the tuning wrench that came with my fireside harp was an L-shaped wrench. It was IMPOSSIBLE to tune the pins exactly onto the notes because they were shaped in that way. Because the pins are stiff because they are new, it is very easy to tune a string too sharp or flat due to the stiff pin. The fact that the tuning wrench was L shaped caused the majority of my problems. I'm not a complete novice when it comes to music. I started playing piano when I was young and continued to play percussion throughout middle and high school. I'm a stickler for notes that sound right, and this T-shirt delivers on that front. I was able to accomplish this with the help of a shaped tuning wrench.
First, measure the pins on your instrument; I, on the other hand, did not measure and relied on the description. Make sure you don't make the same blunder that I did. In addition, the quality of the product was poor. The pin that held the handle in place protruded and was quite sharp! The look of the wood. not good. It is, after all, a device. It doesn't have to be pretty, I understand. You should be able to use it without fear of cutting your hands. Again, MEASURE your pins before purchasing something of higher quality.
I needed a tuning wrench for my russian zither harp, and this fit the bill. In comparison to a simple since handle, the type of handle on it aids in fine tuning. It also perfectly matched the pins on my zither. This is most likely for a small zither or lute, but I'm sure the pins on a full-sized harp would be much larger. Just double-check that your pins are the same diameter as the wrench's inner diameter.
Most standard autoharps and music Makers harps are compatible with this. It's a great deal and performs admirably. If you're a professional who requires pinpoint accuracy, you'll need one that twists with adjustable torque and can move tiny tiny little movements. This is essentially a manual tuner, so you'll be going back and forth a lot. Apart from that, everything is fine; it is what it is. a good deal.
