Harp Kit
The same instruments are offered in kit form for home assembly.
The price includes the license to build one instrument for
private use.
Construction of our 'Minster Lovell' Harp is straightforward and we
can recommend the kit for anyone wishing to build a traditional harp for the
first time.
The pillar is supplied pre-bent from solid beech and the harmonic curve is
cut to match. Selected lime is supplied thicknessed and cut to size for the
simple rectangular soundbox.
A tuning lever, 22 traditional style tuning pins and a set of gut strings
complete the kit.
The Semitone Keys Kit is supplementary to the 'Minster Lovell' harp kit
and contains 22 'flag' style semitone levers in die cast brass, a hole template
and fitting instructions. It is easier to fit the semitone levers during the
initial construction of the instrument rather than after the tuning pins and
strings have been fitted.
The 'Weekender' Harp kit is one of a range 'Weekender' kits which have
been designed for ease of assembly, practicality and economy. They are enjoyable
to build and can be finished, as the name implies, in a weekend or two. All the
parts supplied are cut to size from English sycamore, beech or laminated birch,
ready for final assembly. You can choose nylon or gut strings.
A fully dimensioned plan and instruction manual take the builder through the
construction of the instrument in a clear and concise manner, with 'step by
step' photographs further illustrating each stage.
All the kits Include
free access to our customer 'Helpline' should you need any advice on
construction, setting-up or playing.
