    Hello! I was wondering if there is anywhere online where you can listen to sound samples of different kinds of harps. I know that Dusty Strings has that, but I would like to hear a L&H Ogden.

    I would like to someday buy a lever harp with a lovely, mellow tone (not twangy). I currently play the pedal harp. I have considered the Ogden, but I would love to find some sound samples without calling stores.

    Thanks.

    Clive Morley’s website in the UK has sound/video samples of several harp models.

    Yeah, sure, when I’m playing for my BFF, MOOOORGAN FAIRCHILD!

    Sorry, comedy flashback to the 80’s there.

    I’m sure the harp would sound like that – IF I could PLAY like that, LOL!

    It has a great sound, especially in the base range.

    Sound sample of different harps are not really comparable.

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts. I’m sure I’ll make another trip up to the VA harp center eventually—maybe when I save up some more money.

    Again, thanks and happy harping!
