| Celtic Lever Harps |
Also called folk harps or troubadour harps, lever harps are distinguished by the "lever" mechanism that lets you change the pitch of each string. Most of our Celtic lever harps have sharpening levers on each string; certain models only have levers on C's and F's. More levers lets you play in a wider range of keys without re-tuning strings.
Our Celtic harps are generally styled after the traditional Irish harp made popular in Ireland centuries ago. These harps are easy to play and have a lower string tension than our so-called "classic" lever harps. Our classic lever harps are more suitable for someone who is likely to go on to pedal harp some day and are described on our Classic Lever Harp Page. Travelling? Smaller harps can be found on our Lap Harp Page.
The Harp Connection offers Celtic harps in a huge range of sizes, from 26 to 38 strings, many different kinds of woods and soundboard and body ornamentation. Unlike our classic lever harps, which are all made of maple, Celtic harps can be made of walnut, cherry and more exotic woods like bubinga. If you are not sure which harp is best for you, we hope you can visit our showroom or call us and we can help you find the harp of your dreams. We also have a terrific Rental Program to make getting started or trying a different harp easier.
At The Harp Connection, our commitment to you doesn't stop at the sale. Learn about our revolutionary Treat Yourself to Service program. We are the only harp dealer with a program of this kind.
You can click on the image of any harp to see a high-resolution photograph of that harp in a separate window. Our in-stock inventory is listed on the individual Celtic harp pages. Our web site includes short videos of all the Celtic lever harps made by Dusty Strings; you will find links to the videos on our individual harp pages. Our movies use the QuickTime movie format; you can get a free player for all computers directly from Apple's Quicktime Download Site.
