Reed Gapping.
Due to the attractive force of the TuneMaster™ magnets, they tend to reduce the
gap of the blow reeds, and enlarge the gap of the draw reeds
–
a little bit. This might cause the
blow reed to “choke” and/or the draw reed to become leaky. If you find this to be the case, you
need to adjust the gap… but just a little bit. Instructions how to do this are available on several
websites, including ours.
Beware of Moon Dust:
This TuneMaster™ magnets are strong. And everything magnetic sticks to
them. If, perchance you are not careful about where you store your harp, or if you play out, say,
at a machine shop, there is a possibility of magnetic particles becoming trapped between the
magnet and the reed. This will cause the reed to buzz, or become unplayable. If this happens,
slide a strip of adhesive tape under the magnet to draw out the offending “Moon dust.”
If you run into any kind of trouble, don't hesitate to contact us. We
are committed to making your TurboSlide experience a satisfying
one. If we cannot solve your problem remotely, we are pleased to
service your harp in our shop.
