Gary has incorporated some new ideas to make this kit
easier to assemble than our large Gothic harps. All
cutting is done for you, even the access holes in the
back. The neck is drilled and tapered for tuning pins
and guide pins. We put a large tenon inside the
neck/pillar joint, eliminating the need for outer plates,
though you may add decorative overlays if you like.
The flat soundboard and back are easy to install and
then frame with solid hardwood trim strips that have
veining grooves that you can highlight with black or
gold paint to “outline” the soundboard. Plan on a
40-hour project, and take your time to finish and
decorate this instrument for elegance.
You'll want a
large work table, a few clamps, electric hand drill, and
power sander, along with normal household hand tools.
Decals are very thin self-adhesive black vinyl you can
add after finishing the harp.
Shipping surcharge to Europe or Japan: $60.00
