Hi Kelly, have you bought your harp yet? I hope my comments don’t come too late, or even if they do, I hope they give you some good things to think about.
I’m going to step back one level and talk about instrument purchase from a broader perspective.
I’ve played a half-dozen different instruments over the course of my 50 years in music. One thing seems to be fairly consistent: The first instrument I buy is rarely my last. At highest extreme, I’ve owned 6 flutes — upgraded 5 times before I stuck with the one I love. I’ve owned 4 guitars and 2 hammered dulcimers, 2 mountain dulcimers (and am contemplating upgrading to a 3rd)
