What pictures do I need to send you for a rough evaluation of my harp?

Evaluation
Please just give me an overall view of the harp.
A picture of this part of the action plate is good for knowing what kind of harp it is.
Please include a rear view of the knee block.
Please include a picture of the right side of the knee block.
Please include a picture of the left side of the knee block from this angle.
Please include a picture of the soundboard from this angle. This will help me assess the amount of "belly."
Please include a picture of where the base board meets the soundboard.
Please include a picture of the side view of the base board, base, harp body. This view will give clues to the amount of body base frame slippage that you have.
As always, bigger is generally better when it comes to digital pictures. All of the pictures I used here on this FAQ posting are at 25% of their original size. Please send me bigger ones.
Thanks!
