40 strings harp - gut
Lyon & Healy Prelude harpDesigned with the performing harpist in mind, this romantic classic is crafted with a decorated Sitka Spruce soundboard for a rich, powerful tone.
With 40 strings to accommodate a larger range of music, the artistically styled Prelude 40 lever harp features string spacing and tension similar to a traditional Lyon & Healy pedal harp.
Included with the new Prelude 40 are a scalloped bronze-finished crown and matching claw feet, as well as a classically turned wooden crown and stylized feet. All pieces complement the elegant lines of its graceful base and delicately fluted column, plus they allow you to customize the look of your Prelude 40 to your individual taste.
The Prelude is available in three finishes, which are generally available in store:
- Mahogany
- Natural
- Ebony
The Prelude harp comes with a tuning key, dust cover and a 3 year manufacturer's limited warranty.
