Thank you Molly a very helpful video, not only with that wee harp but common with many lyres too. Lyres have no bridge pin but the tuning pins often slip. This is so helpful, especially for the pin tight glue.

Thank you, Molly! I changed the strings on my Aklot and the lower C pin kept slipping. Your trick worked :)

I had that problem on my Aklot harp and I figured out exactly what you said. This is a great video though because someone who doesn't have experience with building/modifying instruments may not intuitively know that. Great advice!

Such a lovely warm smile and so sweet and sincere you obviously love your Harps what a beautiful talent to have to be able to play the Harp that King David played to his flocks of Sheep when he was a young man before He was anointed to become the King of Israel I am truly inspired by your blessed gift from god’s graceful hands

Very informative! Thanks a million for this video! Got the exact same problem with my Lotkey harp I bought on Amazon. Cheers!

You are a lifesaver, Molly. Thanks for this (on behalf of one of my students).

Thank you for the advice about the pin glue. I had already figured out the pushing in thing since I have played fiddle and banjo for many years

glad this harp string color stay the same from low octave to high. mine was changing color on the higer octave (only the C string). Thankyou Molly, this is super helpful. I have no problem on my slipping pegs again 🙏 God bless

I had just this problem on my lowest G string (Aklot harp), glue was the thing that eventually fixed it. Now it's the low D that won't stay in tune- very frustrating, but I do love my harp dearly. This would have been so helpful when I got my harp last Christmas!

Thank you for this and your review of the Aklot (bough one after watching your review)...I had that problem and was able to solve it thanks to your video!

Thank you SO much! I just got this exact harp as a Christmas gift and I knew the strings would stretch for a while, but the pegs were starting to slip backwards as soon as I'd turned them! This seems to have helped so much. Do you have any recommendations for sheet music/music books for this kind of harp? It seems most are for lever or pedal harp. Thanks again!

Thank you. I got this harp a week ago. Sounds good in tune gets out of tune everyday. It has gotten better over a week so going to wait another week. I ended alao ordering a fireside harp with c and f levers should be here in less than 2 weeks.

Hi! any chance you could share a link to the tuning key you are using? I bought this harp second hand and it did not come with one 😭

My Lyre peg twisted into the lyre. How do I get it back out?

Hello thank you for this video I was wondering about this because I actually contacted Aklot about this issue and they told me to hammer the harp when I did this it fully broke the pegs popping out completely.. I contacted them again saying their suggestion didn’t work and they wound up sending me three more all of which did not stay tune and I’ll have the same issue.. so I started wondering if I could maybe superglue them.. I have not tried it yet however I did follow your link to the glue and I see it’s unavailable is there any other glue that you would suggest to do the trick?

Hey really helpful but I am still struggling to tune my harp how can I tune it properly

Super helpful!!

How can i amplify this harp?

Hi Molly Will this work on Lyre Harp pins as well?

What a charming lady! :)

Please, would very, very lightly tapping the tuning peg in with a hammer--working little by little--work, too?

what a charming young lady
