Title: The Harp! Post by: the dirt on January 27, 2007, 06:16:12 PM I'm thinking ofpicking up the harp and possibly applying it into some kind of money making venture.
Anyone here play the harp? Thoughts, knowledge, etc? Title: Re: The Harp! Post by: Genesis on January 28, 2007, 04:05:34 AM Anyone here play the harp? Er, not that I know of. :nervous: Title: Re: The Harp! Post by: Mal Brossard on January 28, 2007, 11:04:32 AM Harp as in harmonica-style mouth harp? Or the actual string-plucking harp?
My mom has played the Celtic harp for somewhere between 10 and 15 years now. Title: Re: The Harp! Post by: the dirt on January 28, 2007, 01:35:23 PM The big string-plucking style ones.
Er, not that I know of. :nervous: What's the problem? Title: Re: The Harp! Post by: Genesis on January 28, 2007, 01:48:22 PM What's the problem? Nah, nothing at all. Just didn't think that anyone on a GN'R board would play a harp. ;D Title: Re: The Harp! Post by: Mal Brossard on January 29, 2007, 12:50:24 PM The huge pedal harps are wicked expensive. I've heard prices of $10-20,000 for the majority of them.
Celtic harps are smaller, more affordable, and probably easier to play. My mom got hers for $600 or so, and it probably runs about $850 or so now, if I had to guess. If you're interested in playing the harp, I'd recommend trying a Celtic one first. Title: Re: The Harp!
