The
Skylark
Introduced in 2005, the year we celebrated our 25th anniversary, the Skylark is a balance between fresh, contemporary design and classic Celtic harp style. With this design we have been able to dispense with the traditional use of a centre strip and side-strips, so the soundboard is revealed right to the very edge of the body. The shape of the soundboard is extended upwards and on into the knuckle. We
have retained the use of the very finest close-grain Sitka spruce
soundboards, solid brass semitone levers, gut strings and solid maple
for the frame. It is not in our nature to compromise the tone, resort to
nylon strings, plywood soundboards, use inferior semi-tone levers
or cheaper finishes. The essence of this harp is simplicity of design,
maximum resonance, reliability and ease of use - while the price has
been kept to a minimum.
* Gut Strung * Maple Satin or choose from a range of colours * All brass, cam-action semitone levers * Soundboard of finest European Sitka Spruce * Available with legs or feet * Hand-painted & carved decorations available * Two- year structural & mechanical guarantee "I am so thrilled with my Skylark! The sound is absolutely wonderful, resonant and clear. It looks lovely too with its simple, clear-cut lines and beautiful pale wood. I shall have hours of pleasure - a harper's dream come true." GILL
