    Holly: Thanks for sharing the details of your tour! It explains why the professional harpist I contacted suggested the 100 over the Chicago. Just curious, are the guts of style 85 different from 100s and above?

    Georgina: Thanks! I had to ask, as I’ve never really seen a good photo of a mahogany 100. I’ve only seen a natural 100 on Lyon and Healy website, ebony 100 here, walnut here. The mahogany…closest one is here, but its the 2000CG soundboard color looks slightly different from the ebony 100. That’s sounds scary! Why are there holes?! If anything happens to the harp, my heart breaks along with it.

    That ebony one above has a soundboard that looks like the ones I have seen this year.

    Hi YJ~

    The guts of all Lyon and Healy pedal harps are the same. However, they all have a diffefrent ‘tone’. Make sure you hear before you buy!

    Good luck!
