Soundboard repair or replace?
Hi. Has anyone any advice with regards whether to repair or replace the soundboard? I have a few small but noticeable vertical cracks appearing in the soundboard around middle C. My harp is over 15 years old. I’ve had a quick word with the maker and it might be possible to do a patch repair (they’ve only seen photos so can’t be sure) but can certainly repair it. I’ve seen on another manufacturers site that small vertical cracks aren’t to be worried about as long as they are in the surface veneer and don’t go right through. The sound on my harp has gradually changed over the years and I’m happy with it and I assume replacing the soundboard would affect this. Any advice welcomed.
