SOLD
This beautiful walnut harp made by Jay Witcher has a beautiful bell-like tone.
Has not been played in years, recently re-strung with yellow brass wire, it seems with difficulties (see images), and could use a re-string. (Heidi replaced a couple of missing strings with brass toggles (shown), the others seem to be covered with tape to avoid slipping off their original nail toggles).
Currently tuned to the key of C (middle C being string # 17). Not sure if that was originally the right tuning. Kneecap shows slight separation which seems stable and has not shifted in many years, otherwise, in absolute beautiful condition.
String diameters confirmed with Witcher.
JAY WITCHER WIRE-STRUNG LAP HARP (20) #731
Height: 24"
Soundboard width, base: 14"
Weight: 7.5lbs
Includes partial packet of yellow brass wires.
Asking: $575.00 or $550.00 if you have a pedal harp-sized tuning key (for example, a Lyon & Healy tuning key).
