The Driscoll Carbon Fiber Tuning Lever
The Driscoll  CF Tuning Lever is an example of the new generation of carbon fiber designed levers.  These stiffer and lighter carbon fiber levers have proven to be easier on the wrist , forearm and shoulder while providing  the tuner a superior tactile connection to the movements of the tuning pin.
Weighing just 12.5 ounces, the Driscoll CF Tuning Lever is 12.5" long with an ergonomic 1.75"  diameter rubber ball end. The lever is compatible with supply house heads and tips and is provided with a  15 ° short head and # 2 Watanabe tip.  The 15° head combined with the levers narrow profile, allow easy sight lines to the tuning pin and ample clearance on all but the tallest of plate struts. If the lever does contact the plate or stretcher the rubberized grip is very forgiving. No more accidentally chipped plate finishes!

I've used my CF lever for 10 years and thousands of tunings. The  wrist and arm discomfort that I would experience after a long day of tuning with my old heavy supply house tuning lever is now gone. I offer a 30 day return policy for full refund.

Reviews from piano tuner-technicians:
"There were two things I thought I knew:
My Hale hammer was up to the task and the 5 degree heads were best as recommended by my mentor 40 yrs ago.
 
Tom's lever disproved both notions. The Driscoll CF Tuning Lever is lightweight and ergonomic. Pin manipulation is beyond what I was used to or imagined possible. Switching pins is effortless. I only carry one lever now instead of three. It's a great lever that really impressed me with it's laser-like precision."

"I have had a few occasions to tune with your new Driscoll CF Tuning Lever. It feels great and the more I use it the more I like its thin profile. I definitely like the way it grips the head of the pin and  that I can change pins without  letting  go of the ball.  I would describe it as another flavor in this new realm of high tech tuning levers."

"Hi Tom,

Just a quick note to let you know how happy I am using your new carbon fiber tuning hammer.  I have used other CF tuning levers and found them easy to use, but bulky and hard on the hand.  Your lever, being thinner in diameter, is easier to grip and the rubberized coating makes it softer to pull, push and tap.    I use it exclusively now and wish it was available years ago.  Thanks."

"I have tuned fifteen pianos in three days in a school district and not taken any ibuprofen to get me through each day. My shoulder is painless. The lever floats from tuning pin to tuning pin and is sound sensitive to find the sweet point of every unison. It is my pleasure to use this tuning lever."

Tom,

After a year of using your tuning lever I wanted to write and thank you once again. My tunings instantly became more stable and my time per tuning decreased due to the superior pin feel of your fine lever. It is easily one of the best investments I have ever made.  Thank you sir, thank you!
