Roosebeck Balladeer Irish Harp (22 Strings, G3-G6, Upgraded Chelby Levers) Extra String Set

The Roosebeck Balladeer Irish Harp is a 22 string Celtic style harp designed by luthier, Zachary Taylor. It is a great choice for a harpist that prefers a smaller harp with a "sweet" Irish sound, tuned in the scale of G instead of C.

Approximately 30" high and weighs 9 pounds. Featuring 22 DuPont hard nylon strings, a range from G3 to G6. 22 upgraded Chelby sharpening levers. It features a detailed floral Celtic engraving and inlaid rosewood frame and a birch soundboard for exceptional sound and strength. Includes an Extra String Set & Tuning Wrench.

Upgraded Chelby levers are mechanically superior to standard levers. The design allows the lever to engage the string from the side and limit the possibility of strings lifting off the bridge pin. Professional harpists appreciate the red and blue colored caps, which make it easy to locate the C- and F-string levers. The lever is attached to its base by a hex bolt. A synthetic washer is spaced between the lever and base, creating a smooth and controlled, lifting action that resists slipping once engaged. The base of each lever is mounted to the harp arm by two screws, should any adjustment be necessary. The bridge pins for the Chelby levers have also been improved; they can be adjusted, in or out, by simple turning with a hex wrench.
