Harp

(1/5) > >>

Newindian:
I don’t know if y’all remember me, I’m an engineering student these days and haven’t had much time for personal projects. I once made a harp for a school project that was crap but was good enough for me to learn to play, since then I’ve decided to work on improving my instrument building . This is a harp I made for practice started about a year and a half ago, 33 strings 920lbs tension, pretty much made out of what you can get out of your local Lowe’s/homedepot. Harping build sure is more strict than bows.

bjrogg:
Very nice newindian, I'm sure Marc will be interested. He has built several he has post right here.

That is a heck of a project. Beautiful looking.

Stoker:
Very cool.. Says the guy that can't barely play the radio  :o
Thanks Leroy

Hawkdancer:
Congratulations!  I don't have the talent, skills, or tools and space to make a harp!  My harp was made by a friend who does and wanted to make a prototype, so I had him set it up for a left handed player, similar to a wire strung type.  I also have a "travel" model I am renting.  What type music do you play?  I am more into Celtic, and traditional folk music.  What sort of stand do you have on yours! 
Good luck with the engineering program!
