    Lyon & Healy Louis XV Special Concert Grand. Unfortunately, it’s $179,000… not a reasonable thing to invest when you’re still a student.

    Right now I’m in love with my style 23. But L&H Louis XV would be a dream.

    Not my cup of tea, but I know a lot of people like the pretty/wood type harps. I think that’s why the Arianna is so popular. I like the gold harps on that website….woohooooo! I wish he would post prices.

    It’s interesting how the design strikes you.

    I forgot to mention that I love the gold harps also.

    If money was no object I would be calling Dave Woodworth at Heartland Harps and ordering my Dragonheart in ancient Kauri wood right now! But I’m content with my kit-built Voyageur from Musicmaker’s. It

    Easy to make, Karen. It just takes some time.

    Hello Jerusha,

    I’m not a pedal harpist, but I do look at them.

    Hi Geri!

    I think that I’m mostly attracted to organized designs in the shape of a harp.

    I may get brave and attempt to hand-sew one. I’ve heard velvet can be quite a bear to work with (from someone who sews). I’m quite adept at sewing buttons but that’s about it- looks like another skill that I may have to teach myself…and make time for… ;-)

    I have a Salvi Arion (beautiful, warm, projecting tone in the bass and mid-range with a lot of sustain, and a bright, resonating treble that’s even and strong all the way to the top).
