When the bamboo is broken, sometimes it is dangling around with the bamboo while doing things, and the bamboo is damaged by scratching against a hard object. In response to this situation, remind yourself not to hold the piano and bamboo when doing things, and to put down the piano and focus on doing things, so as to avoid unnecessary breaking of the piano and bamboo. Another situation is that the bamboo is inserted into the strings when playing, and before the bamboo can be pulled backwards, it will forcefully force forward and break the bamboo. This situation is mainly due to the inconsistency between the angle of the hand stretched forward and the angle formed by the dulcimer placed on the frame. First, in the practice, pay attention to the angle formed when the hand stretches forward cannot be smaller than the angle presented by the piano body. Practice strictly according to the angle when the body is placed. The second is to adjust the angle at which the dulcimer is placed on the frame to reduce the angle presented by the front of the body, so that the front and rear movement tracks of the hand are completely in line with the piano surface, which can effectively prevent the bamboo from breaking.
When transporting the dulcimer, it is best to inform or train the transporter in advance to keep the piano body in a horizontal position during the handling process to prevent the dulcimer body from falling out of hand or sliding from the frame to the ground during transportation. When using the dulcimer frame to carry the dulcimer, use both hands to clamp the column of the qin frame between the middle finger and the ring finger, and use the thumb to press the dulcimer roller plate. When the piano frame is pushed forward, the rear legs of the piano frame are not easy to lift too much, so as to prevent the piano frame from suddenly encountering an obstacle when it is pushed forward, and the piano body suddenly rushes forward out of the piano frame by inertia. Therefore, it is not easy to move the dulcimer by pushing the frame too fast, and it is better to be stable and slow.
Because dulcimer is a valuable item, it should be handled with care and regular maintenance. If a heavy object is placed on the piano surface, it will cause the piano code to break, the force on the piano body will increase, and the pressure on the piano panel will increase and aggravate the deformation. consequences of playing. Placing the sundries, especially once the liquid flows to the surface of the piano, will cause pollution on the surface of the piano, which is difficult to remove, which not only affects the appearance of the dulcimer instrument, but is unpleasant and regrettable.
The cleanliness of the dulcimer surface mainly depends on covering the surface of the dulcimer with cloth to avoid dust. Once there is dust on the piano surface, you should use special tools, such as cleaning the piano surface with a felt stick, and use a blackboard pen to remove the dust between the bridge connecting the semi-circular surface and the gap between the strings and the tuning pins. , When conditions permit, you can use a hair dryer to blow off dust and so on. Do not use objects with oil or pollutants to remove the piano surface, which will cause secondary pollution of the piano surface.
When the pegs are loose, use one hand to pull the strings upward with force, and use the tuning wrench to loosen the strings. After the strings are withdrawn from the pegs, continue to turn the tuning pegs until the strings are all out of the pegs. , Take out the tuning peg, use a small hammer to re-smash a thickened peg into the original peg hole about 1 cm deep, and then use a tuning wrench to tighten the peg down, slightly higher than the other pegs by about 1 cm. 2mm, then re-thread the exited strings into the pegs to wind the strings. Pay attention to pressing the string of the first circle when winding the string for the second time to avoid tripping, continue to tighten the peg, and adjust to the desired pitch.
