All Stoney End harps have a similar construction. They use solid Walnut, Cherry or Maple wood for the structural frame and pinblock. The plywood side and back panels are inserted into dado cuts in the solid corners and the base. This makes a durable and strong, yet very lightweight harp body. Their soundboards are the heart of their good sound. They use a Finnish aircraft grade 3 millimeter Birch laminate. This provides exceptional strength with low weight and allows them to make cutouts on both the bottom and top ends of the string band. This opens up the soundboard and makes it free to vibrate over its entire surface, something that thicker, stiffer, more confined soundboards cannot do. No other small harp is able to produce the good sound that theirs do. We believe that Stoney End produces harps with the best combination of good sound, and affordable price anywhere in the world today.
Comes as a kit. A kit is a good way to get the experience of building a harp while also developing a stronger understanding of your instrument. $799.00
