WILL THIS TUNE A 1959 Oscar Schmidt auto harp?

Do the tuning pegs have a squarish roundish shape? Like tuning pegs on a piano but much smaller? I'm pretty sure all autoharps have the same kind of pegs and this one should work. I say go for it. Get a 25$ purchase and shippings free for that item, kinda cool.

I've used it on the traditional E, A, D, and G strings of a bass, but I must say, I've never tried to tune that low B with this tuner.

It's for 5 and 6 mm pins. I bought it for the Roosebeck Celtic Heather Harp which has 6 mm pins.

I use it on a banjo, there is a sticky side on the base, but it's not very functional. I rigged up some tape to keep it stable and the nodes. Not sure how it would work for a harp. The pick up itself works very great

It should be able to tune anything. It tells you the note it is "hearing" relative to A440 concert pitch that orcestras tune to. If you play a trnsposing instrument like a clarinet or sax, you need to make the adjustment yourself, just as you would when playing with an orchestra or band. I hope tis helps.

Yes you can still here the harp acoustically. It has the pick up on the side. It does not come with EQ or the fine tuning

Absolutely. I love it. It is finicky on tuning. But I would highly recommend it.

It would work with any ten holes harp. I just have a Suzuki as different grande from hohner,mand it fits perferct. I think it runs with all DIATONIC (ten holes) harmonicas

Hello,No, that model is milled for vintage style tuners, so you would need conversion bushings for the post holes and then tap holes for the mounting tabs to install these.

I couldn't tell, as I only bought it to tune an old piano that I bought, It was fine for that. Sorry I could not be more helpful. Geoff

First of all yes it comes with tuning levers, but your question is incomplete and could cost you a lot of time and money if you aren't asking this: "Do the tuning levers work well and stay in tune?" Ahhh, your million dollar question .....and NO these levers just don't change the pitch exact enough, making this harp a very expensive door stop if you are a beginner and tuning takes you a lot of time.! If you want to learn more about Celtic Harps, join the Music Lovers group on Google and ask, ask,ask questions .....then go try models you have put at the too of your list. You might even think about renting a few before buying. Good luck!

I think that since it operates on 10m and 12m, without a tuner, it should "tune up" with a tuner...........may ask the dealer for sure

Hello. It would work on any instrument. It will give you the note of the string you pick, and tell you how flat or sharp the tuning is. It is very accurate.Take care.

The tuner is chromatic, which means it tunes all notes including sharps and flats, and it is a clip-on that responds to vibrations in the instrument. Any instrument you can clip it to, it will tune. Very low frequencies as in a bass guitar will not register as well, but banjo, ukellele, violin, etc. will tune fine. Even horns and woodwinds should work.

Is it fixed? Bit of a typo on your question I think you missed the "d". If that is what you meant it does unscrew at the base of the sphere, however I have tuned 3 pianos from a 1923 baby grand Brambach to a 1963 Cable upright and it has work great on all of them. It's got a star shaped slot that is quasi-universal. It does telescope as well however if THATS what you meant. Hope I didn't sound too pretentious and I could help. The kit overall is great quality. The best for the money that I could find. If you are just starting out the only other thing you may want is a couple more wedge mutes (although they aren't really all that necessary). And a good book. "Piano Servicing, Tuning, and Rebuilding" by Arthur A. Reblitz is a fantastic resource with just about everything you need to know, then some. There are also great practice exercises for the beginning tuner.

Yes, I have tuned 3 grand pianos and one spinet with this thing. It is not reliable in the upper or extreme lower register. You will have to tune by ear using the 21st. I use it on my harpsichord all the time--same problems in the extreme ends. It does really help nail that unison though. Hope that helps.

Absoluely no. There is another model , always made by Hohner , That's quite perferct for chromatic models. This is ONLY for the DIATONIC .and it is much batter made and stronger, exactely as you need if you play with a chromatic harp
