    The Epic Harp

    The Epic Harp is... well... it's epic! This harp has a sound as big as its name and plays like a dream. The unique bowed belly of the harp produces the richest, biggest bass we have ever heard on a folk harp. And the laminated neck and pillar come together to make a stunning piece of woodworking.

    The Epic Harp has an impressive 38 strings beginning on A1 and extending to C7. This gives you all the notes you need up top along with some extra bass notes to add depth to your arrangements. The string spacing is comfortably in the concert spacing range so you'll feel right at home.

    Through some careful and intentional engineering, we have kept the size and weight of this harp very manageable. The Epic Harp stands 5 feet tall and can fit comfortably in just about any car. The weight is just 27 pounds which is amazing for an all-wood harp with 38 strings and a voice as deep and big as a pedal harp.

    Upgrades

    Soundboard Upgrade

    Our harps use an aircraft grade birch plywood. It has 6 layers of birch laminated together and is just 1/8" thick. We have used this same material on our soundboards for years because it provides exceptional strength and stability as well as a clear, consitent tone.

    Birch, however, is a plain looking wood without much in the way of interesting grain patterns. There is nothing wrong with that. However, many harpists prefer something with more visual appeal. We have sourced a variety of interesting and gorgeous veneers that can be applied to the soundboard. Each veneer is unique and turns your soundboard into an eye-catching, head-turning, work of art.

    Does adding a soundboard veneer effect the tone of the harp? Yes - it does, although not very much. Each veneer is slightly different but, in general, adding a soundboard veneer will trend the tone of the harp to be slightly warmer.

    Vivid Color Upgrade

    Vivid Color Harps

    We have always loved the natural grain of the woods we use and didn't want the color to hide that; we wanted the color to accentuate the grain. Maple, being a wood that is lighter in color, makes the perfect canvas for our vivid color stains.

    Maple is also available with some highly figured and beautiful grain patterns. We use select curly maple for the sides, neck, and pillar and offer a quilted maple veneer upgrade on the soundboard. The stain interacts with the figured grain patterns in exciting and surprising ways.

    Maple is a harder wood than cherry so the vivid color version of any harp will weigh roughly 10% more than the standard version and the sound will tend to be slightly brighter.

    I love this harp! I went all out and ordered the vivid color: Autumn Red. It is beautiful and the tone of the harp is ethereal. The bass is full, the middle has lovely warmth, and the top has just the right amount of brightness. Kudos to all of the people at Musicmakers for building this special harp for me. Everyone there is so helpful. A special thanks to Jacob for being so patient and working with me to get the color just as I requested. Musicmakers are the best!
