Which would you choose and why?

Consider the following
A harp has been played by a real professional player and after some time the harp is fully “broken in”
Now a beginning harpist is getting this harp.
After a very short time the harp will lose the “broken in” and will fall back to the level of the beginning harpist.

Also this happen to all instruments….they lose there “broken in” when not being played.

A harp can also sound different to the owner if just one hour a different harpist was playing that instrument.

What I wanted to say is that the “broken in” of a harp is a very, very personal thing and depends of the possibility of the player.
“Broken in” have two sides…
The harp potential…has to come out
The player …has to do it.
The harps “broken in” can be only as good as the harpist is able to bring the full harp potential to the world.

New. I prefer to break in my own harp. If this old harp had not one buzz, rattle, as well as quiet pedals and everything within the action moved flawlessly, I MIGHT consider it. But otherwise, new.
