    Hi Adrianna,

    There is a pedal/lever harpist located in Santa Barbara by the name of Laurie Rasmussen http://www.laurierasmussen.com…It looks like she rents out harps, but not sure she has a pedal harp for rent, but you might want to contact her to find out….good luck!

    Hi Holly, we felt the quake yesterday too, our 1938 house creaked and shook, even though we’re about five hours away from the epicenter in Baja, but, very scary indeed!, You never get used to them, ever!.

    I have two of my lever harps secured (or I’d like to think so) under my staircase, and a third, medium size harp, is in my dining room wedged between a chair, heavy bench and a heavy music stand, and the harps were okay, except my Ravenna 26 popped an, “E” string right after the quake, weird!.

    Yes, I would…the tone is not plinky, and has alot of depth, and projects very well on both the 36 string Infinity, and the Delight.

    Jerusha, for portability, you should check out Dave Woodworth’s (Heartland Harps) new 36 string carbon fiber harp, The Infinity, which only weighs 8lbs. and stands 43in. high, (you can wear it with a strap).

    Hi Jerusha,

    I have heard a difference in tone between a Dusty FH26 in walnut, and one in koa..The koa wood projected more, and had a much brighter tone, whereas the FH26 in walnut was more mellow….I’m assuming the Bubinga would be similar to the koa, but not sure..

    Also, Suzanne Guldimann’s music books are written specifically for small/lap harp.

    Okay, I’ll take a stab at it…..the tune sounds (to my ears), like O’Carolan’s Planxty Irwin.…at least the beginning does….
