I've never bought or installed sharping levers (both of my spouse's harps came with full sets of levers, Lovelands on one and Truitts on the other) so haven't the foggiest notion of where to buy them. I've taken the proverbial bull by the horns, however, and have contacted Rees Harps about their own brand of levers which appear to be a close doppelganger to Truitts. I'll let you know what I find out.

If I might ask, what are the string gauges, and what tuners is Rob using, for the sub-bass strings? I think knowing the height of the tuner post holes, and so how many wraps of the strings are necessary to use, above the head will be critical information.
