I love my Blevins Lyra 22 lap harp.

I’ve taken multi-year breaks from extensive playing, and have had no trouble “coming back” with callouses.

I love my 22-string Blevins Lyra. Great sound for a little harp!

I developed bursitis in my right shoulder a couple of years ago. I’m quite petite, so I’m always reaching up with my arm for things (writing on classroom boards, for example). In addition to classroom teaching and harp playing, I also commercial fish (salmon) during the summers.

Physical therapy resolved the issue, with no adverse effects on my harp playing. It’s really worth getting it checked out.

Take a look at the Caswell Sweetharp

I also have an 85 P, and Aoyama 140 D, and a Blevins Lyra 22.

You might also want to take a look at the Caswell Sweetharp 29.

I recently had the opportunity to try the prototype version with 29 strings.

Hi Cheryl,

Very nice to see you here! I tend to mostly lurk here, too.

I’ve had reasonably good luck with an HD Flip video, at least for practice purposes.

Someday, we’ll make it up there.

Hi Paul,

In what part of Alaska do you live? We commercial fish out of Craig (on P.O.W.) during the summers.

Wow! And here I thought taking my little lap harp on my commercial fishing trips in Alaska was a stretch. This is really quite a project! Thanks for posting the link.

I have a Blevins Lyra 22 that I take on my small boat in Alaska, during the summer commercial salmon season.
