Not an easy one, since it goes under the heading horses for corses. I have 3 which I use interchangeably. An impact tuning hammer by McCaffey (spell) a hail tuning lever which is a single piece curved head which I use on older uprights and a hail adjustable lever for everything else. I'd like to see the new Renner levers. I once had a chance to use a Japanese lever which I found very nice to use.
