wonderful. enjoy.

Turn - 'Rightie-Tightie, and Leftie Loosey.' Learned this when on ambulance corp and using O2 machine, and so think it helped me remember then, and will work for using on Lyres too.. Just thought it might help someone else to remember which we to turn pin. I know this has helped me so often. Really needed this lesson. TY!

thank you sm! my lyre string cane broken and popped off so this rlly helped

Thanks for uploading this video, it helped me out alot. Found a nice little 10 string rosewood lyre harp at a pawn shop in perfect condition except one string out ($39 with case and tuning tool, never see a deal like that again, guess they didn't research it enough!) and the day I got it I broke another string. Got the new strings quick enough but without this video I would've been lost, never did this before. Learned a couple of tuning tips too, thanks again, gotta go get my lyre and play some Nero songs now....

Thank you for your video. I find that phone APPS, such as Chroma or gStrings, are good for tuning, because when the string sounds the APP shows the corresponding note on the screen (such as G3, A3. B3.....G4, A4 etc) that is more accurate than by comparing the sounds between the harp and tuner.

Hi Music, Our lyre uses guitar-style strings, and chrome tuning pegs -- sorry for the delayed response! We are now receiving email notifications when we get KZread questions :)

I’m getting mine tomorrow this is useful thanks

Hi-- Typically, you don't need a strap for this type of lyre, as it is designed to be held in the lap or cradled in the arm. Thanks for asking!

Hi talesband, The Eyster lyres use guitar-style strings. Sorry for the delayed response, hope it helps!

Hi wolframlee, Sorry for the delay in responding! In order to tune it properly, we need to know what scale your lyre uses. It's the same concept shown in this video, however. With more information, we can offer more guidance!

Might I ask a question - when I got my Lyre [today] the strings were all tight and one or two had snapped. I used to play the Cello and always slackened the strings of both bow and instrument. It would seem logical to do the same with the Lyre. Yes? slack when in storage?

Thanks a lot!

My extra string is quite long when I roll it. Before you roll counter clockwise, does the string need to tight?

Did you ever find an answer to this question? I managed to find a guitar string at Guitar Center that should work for the low a (I've broken that one twice), but I lost the grommet in the midst of changing it.

thank you 🙂

thank you

could you use a clip on tuner to tune the strings?

can you order tuning pins and grommets from your store?

Hello, how to remove the broken string? Unwind it using tuning wrench?

This is so tricky :/ thanks for the vid.

Can you make a video showing someone playing this lyre? I've had mine for about a month now and while I'm getting used to the strings and learning to play some songs, I cannot for the life of me find a comfortable way to hold the lyre (Seasons Lyre). I would really appreciate some suggestions. I've seen videos of some men who hold different lyres against their chests, but let's just say that I have some soft tissue interference in that regard.

Hello, I'm looking to invest in a new lyre because I'm having an issue with mine, and I have a question first. Two of my lyre strings broke and when I tried to restring my 10-string lyre I had a hard time finding dedicated strings. I found some similar ones but since putting them on they are cutting into the wood and so going out of tune. Is there a way to avoid this with my new lyre?

the end of the string bit got stuck in the hole and i dont knonw how to get it out ): my lyre is rly thick so i have nothing thin enough to push it out

Hi lemichil, Sorry for the delay in response -- we were not receiving notifications about KZread comments :) To answer your question, we offer replacement grommets for our lyre customers! Email hello@palumba.com and we'll help you out!

Hi! sorry for my bad english , i wanna ask you about the long of the strings, what kind of stings (0.9 , 0.10. 0.12 etc ) are u using and the long of the body. thank you! nice instument!

May I ask what sort of strings you use (piano/zither/etc.)? Also, is there a name for the type of tuning peg you use?

Wait lemme get this straight... yall provide a electronic tuner with the lyre purchase??

How did you put the string around the little ball?

wow is the toothpick method legit for fixing loose tuning pins?

Hi, can you also demonstrate how to tune a 16 strings lyre harp please, I got one but not sure how to tune it out. Thank you

You have the choice of pentatonic (5 note scale), diatonic (7 note scale) or chromatic (12 note scale). Pentatonic if you want to improvise and make up your own tunes. Diatonic if you want to play tunes written on a scale, such as major or minor scale, and Chromatic if you want to play anything.

How to tune the 12 strings Lyre?

What are the string gauges used on this particular lyre? Thanks!

Do you have a strap on your lyre? michaeljking has loads of videos on the Anglo-Saxon lyres, and he uses a strap.

Hi, I have a lyre similar to that but it has 13 strings. I don't know how to tune it. Do you know any tuning apps I can download to help me? And the tuning would go from C to a? Also, where can I find melodies to play? Thanks for the video! 😊

very informative.i made a long lyre with 6 strings.unfortunately i had nylon strings which don't seem to work well,1 string broke half way to working with tightening it.and wasn't too tight yet..

Went to tune my lyre and it snapped low key died inside but this helped

I made a lyre harp, though mine has to be I use a cherub violin mic for it.

I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75 /////////////////,,,,,,,,,
