Very well explained, IMHO, thanks Hal!

Hi, Hal!
Thanks for your teaching always! 🎉👍
I have one question.
Can I buy code button only? My harp buttons are so small, so I realy want to change the code buttons! Could you help me, please! 🙏💜

[@GrandpaTeachesYouGuitar]

Good stuff, Sensi..
Thank you for the stocking!

[@wildautoharp]

You can replace with same sized chord buttons; not larger. If you have a custom built luthier autoharp, something might be made special.

[@joyceshin334]

@@wildautoharp Thanks, Hal! What about change hole code bar sets?
I really need your advice! 🙏
My harp is Oscar Schmidt OS - 21C model.
If I buy code bar sets from d'Aigleharp store, and change that myself?

[@wildautoharp]

Why change? What is your goal? What are you trying to fix?

Hey Hal! Do you take requests? I'd like to hear "When Your Old Wedding Ring Was New."

[@wildautoharp]

Thanks for asking. I went and listend to it because I wasn't familiar. I don't take requests though because I seldom concertize or play songs here...it's been a very long time. In fact it's been a very long time since I worked up any new songs or even played songs period. That's sad but true. When you are a full time autoharp teacher, autoharp repair man and autoharp sales rep, you don't really want to sit down with your spare time and do autoharp stuff. I don't play concerts anymore either...just no time. I play my flutes and harmonicas recreationally, and enjoy those because I'm terrible at it, and just learning how to do it. I should make a video about THIS!
