I have found the inharmonicity is to found in all stringed instruments,
harps, fortepiano, pianos, harsichords and others.

The inharmonicty goes down with tension and wire sizes such that a low
tension instrument with fine wires will have least inharmoncity.  I have
found that two cents is about right for a harpsichord.
