I tried to post again, but it wouldn’t go.
I put my website so you could see my 15.
Maybe HC doesn’t allow posting websites.I have a LH 15, bought new in 1971. I had it re-riveted sometime in the 90s. Neck straight, no soundboard pull up. I moved it 35 years during my playing career…from ’82 till about ’17…very glad that I couldn’t afford a bigger one when I bought it.
People complimented me on the sound all the time.Remember if you take the case, you will need a place to store it.
Also, you will need help loading it, unloading it, and moving it.Fake books.
I have several. I use a free left hand.
This shows the Ultimate, which is very good.

I looked him up. With such a unique name, you wouldn’t think there would be another person by that name.
Among other info was this:
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/brook-boddie-houston-tx/747644No luck finding it.
I tried the link and also went to the other address.
The videos are old…nothing new shows.
Did I not look in the right place?No.
Many years ago, a guy sat down at my harp to “play.” His fingernails went into the soundboard.
Later, when the harp was at the factory for something else, they repaired the board so the marks no longer showed.Personally, I don’t like linear writing. Might as well have a flute play it.
Also, the base is skimpy. Harps play chords and arpeggios.You know the exit march is different from the entrance march? I once heard a string quartet play the entrance march for both the entrance and exit. I wondered about that…if they just didn’t know or what.
Now that you mention glissando… When the bride is ready to enter, I play several glisses to announce the entrance. I learned that years ago when a mom asked me to do it because she’d heard someone else do it. After that, I always did it. It’s very dramatic and lets everyone know the bride is there.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh. Then I play the entrance march.
