I love my Levitan tuning lever that I purchased from pianotek last year. Nearly as stiff and light as a Fujan, but less weird looking and only $135. The only kicker is that the head is welded to the shaft for extra rigidity, thus I can't switch tips simply by switching heads like I used to on my old lever. So I had to go back to using a tip wrench. Well, one day to my chagrin I left it in my shop and needed to switch tips in the field. Neccesity, being the mother of invention, stimulated my creativity. I discovered that the large flat blade screwdriver that fits in a tuning wrench for tightening plate screws used with a small crescent wrench works beautifully! Now I don't need to carry the tip wrench at all, saving several ounces in my kit! -- Ryan Sowers, RPT Puget Sound Chapter Olympia, WA www.pianova.net -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
