Lyre Harp, 16 Strings Mahogany Acoustic Harp with Extra Strings, Picks, Tuning Lever, Black Gig Bag, Beginner's Manual for Lyre

Awesome instrument! My first lyre ever and within a day I got it sounding decent enough.The tuning pegs are quite sensitive, so approach tuning very carefully, especially the first time. Be patient and allow strings to settle and retune constantly. There are a lot of reviews with broken strings, mainly due to how fast strings tense up, be very gentle, can't stress this enough.The construction seems very good, especially for the price. One minor issue I found weird is that not all the strings are equally spaced: the middle ones have way more space between them than the ones to either end. Tuning pegs are equally spaced but as they curve down to the sides, strings get closer together. Perhaps it's intentional. Either way, not too complicated to get used to.

I've had this for a little while now and after the initial tuning this is an absolute joy to play. I'm not the most talented, but I love how easy this is to take places to pluck some strings when I'm in the mood. The size is perfect for travel, and with the ap on my phone I can easily tune it. What sold me on this particular instrument was its design, it's beautiful and very well put together.

amazing lyre, been practicing frequently for around 2-3 years now and its still holding strong, just make sure to replace the strings whenever they brake or get damaged, it was difficult to keep it in tune at first but the more you use it and keep tuning it it’ll eventually stick, overall an amazing instrument for those who are willing to try something new and have the patience to learn the inner workings of this lyre

Maybe 4.5 stars? I just received it (a day late) and I’m trying to tune it. It’s my first lyre harp so I am not sure if it is supposed to be this finicky. I got from one end to the other and all the first strings I did were already out of tune. I know it takes a week or two for strings to settle in, but geez! I will say it’s beautiful and sturdy. The case is really nice too! I will report back after I’ve had it awhile!

Beautiful materials and workmanship. Good price for a begging lyre. The sound quality is pretty good for most of the lyre but G3 (the lowest string) is buzzy and muted. Also the tuning is difficult.

It came with everything and the quality is pretty good it’s fun to play and sound great! I’m a little awkward with it but it’s pretty comfortable in my hands and easy to use if you know where to start.

This lyre is beautiful, but after close to 8 months of owning it, I have been unable to get it to stay in tune. I will get the first few strings tuned, and by the time I reach the final strings, the first strings that I had tuned have already fallen out of tune again. Initially, I had thought it had to do with temperature and/or the strings being new. However, it has had plenty of time to acclimate to the temperature. I have tried other methods, like lightly stretching the strings before tuning, but nothing seems to work to keep them in tune. I want so badly for it to work, but I cannot seem to get the strings to stay in tune for more than a few minutes at most. I am disappointed that it is virtually unplayable at this point.

Buena calidad, hermosa, liviana
