I ordered this T-bar tuning wrench when the L-shaped wrench I use to tune my autoharp broke. I’d had it 60 years. However, I’m really glad I bought this T-shaped one. It’s much easier to make “micro movements”. I highly recommend it.

I was able to tune my 1980s soviet children's lap hard with it very easily.The knobs are super sensitive but the tuner offers very good control.

It does the job, but I spent extra for the dark walnut color. There were other sellers with the light colour one for cheaper. I'm disappointed that it didn't match the description.

Used on hammer dulcimer. T handle is easy to use, allowing fine tuning of the instrument.

Works great for anyone brave enough to tune their own piano, I use it for my ducimer. Which I play to summon Kragnor the sumarian god of longevity. We hang for a bit and then I send him on his way back into the depths of the universe. But using this tuner has made the whole process easier! So Thanks!

I own a Harpsicle harp, which uses zither pins to hold the strings. The tuning wrench that came with my harp is the L-shaped kind with a square opening to hold each pin. I was sort of surprised to find the that wrench was capable of marring the pins if I was not very careful when tuning. This seems to be partly from the sloppy grip of the wrench on the pin and - in full disclosure - partly my inexperience at tuning a harp (I didn't know my own strength). Also, coming from a guitar background, I was disappointed in a wrench that could only attach to a pin at 90 degree intervals. Toward the top of the harp, I found my hand (and wrench) in my face, which does tend to make tuning a bit difficult.What I wanted was a wrench that could attach to the pin at many angles as well as provide a more accurate grip on the pin during tuning. This wrench satisfies both of these needs completely. The star opening works very well. I can attach at 8 angles instead of 4 and - since the wrench is a T instead of an L - even tuning the top strings of my harp is fairly simple. I also feel that a T wrench provides more fine control over the pin. This may be completely psychological, but using a strobe tuner feels easier. The L wrench seemed to move a pin too much in one direction whereas the T wrench feels like it can move the pin less and get in tune more accurately.One final note is that this wrench just plain feels better in the hand. The L wrench hurt my hand a little, but this T wrench does not. I am more careful now about making sure the wrench seats completely on the pin before applying any pressure, and all of the above together makes for a very good experience at tuning now. I recommend this wrench for a lever harp - particularly the Harpsicle.

Just received this, and it's exactly what I wanted! I just purchased a lap harp, which came with a tuning rod. The salesperson a the shop used a tuning lever, which she said she could manipulate better. She was right! I only need to adjust a millimeter at a time, and this lever allows me to make adjustments as great or as small as needed. The opening fits the tuning pins perfectly.It feels sturdy, and I didn't feel like it was going to snap in my hand (I can be rough on tools). A total win!!
