I agree with you. Just because you don’t like a certain type of harp doesn’t mean that everyone else feels the same. I myself don’t enjoy the feel of the Aoyama – but then again I find that some Lyon and Healy’s don’t agree with me either. I prefer Salvi as a maker and would never part with my Arianna but if an Aoyama gives you the best sound and you feel comfortable playing it then it’s best to stay with it.
