Reply To: Tension in the back of the hand

The new Salvi grand harps are a night and day difference in tension and feel. I have an Apollo with the new concept soundboard that is a dream to play. I think the LH, Camac and Salvi’s have a similar feel in the newer harps – they did to me when I was looking for a new harp a couple years ago.

Alison, you may want to check about using lighter tension strings on your harp. There are a number of HC threads on this. I would check with Salvi first make sure it wouldn’t cause a problem with your harp. That might be another thing Unknown User could try.
