    Deb, you’re missing one structural advantage to a cross strung – the pull on either side of the harmonic curve is almost equalized. So many pedal, lever and triple harps eventually fail because of the pull on the one side.

    I was originally going to learn lever harp first and then cross strung but when a Blessley Orion (61 string) became available I couldn’t resist it, so I am learning both harps together. I also do not want to flip levers.
