I am considering buying a used Camac Clio straight. I did not go to see it yet, because i wanted to hear what others might have to say about it. How does it compare with Lyon&Healy and Salvi models? How does the sound compare to an extended soundboard? Would this harp be good for a young harpist to use for the next several years?
I played on a used straight soundboard Clio the Virginia Harp Center brought to the Mid-Atlantic festival this spring (not sure if it’s the one they still have on their web site), and really liked the tone it had. It was a very pretty sound and if I’d been on the market for a pedal harp I might have bought
