When I was test driving harps, the 30s stood out for clarity of sound, and good projection, evenly through the entire range. My ‘non-harpy’ musician husband also prefers the sound of this model. Of course, you won’t really know whether it’s the right one for you until you sit behind it. For my part, I found just enough variance between harps of the same model that I wasn’t willing to special order one; I had to hear the specific one I wanted to purchase. Theoretically, I agree with Saul about finishes, but it was a matte finish ebony one that sang for me. (On the plus side, the matte finish does seem to hide dust better.)

I don’t know how to post a picture in the forum, but I uploaded one into my account as my portrait.

First, let me state that I am not a harp builder, nor a technician, and consider myself only an advanced beginner/intermediate as a player…weigh my answer accordingly 😉

I own an experimental single-action pedal 34 string harp.

I have a single-action pedal harp prototype, made by R Harps, that I’ve nicknamed “Ravensara”.
