For Sale: Lyon & Healy Harp, Style 22 Gold, #2880 (Built in @1925=100 years old). Comes with brown cloth cover. The harp is a semi-grand with 46 strings. It has the same look as a style 23 but a bit more compact and easy to move. It was purchased in @1995 from its previous owned Penny Beavers who had the harp rebuilt by Lyon & Healy Harps in Chicago in the 1980s with a new board, neck and re-rivet. The harp has just received an almost full set of new strings (all new wires, 1st & 2nd octs nylons as well as many new 3rd-5th oct gut strings), a regulation and a full inspection. The harp is in very good condition. Structurally there are no issues in the base, board and body of the harp. There is slight twist in the neck and a very slight clicking in the rivets. It has been well cared for and lightly used over the past 20 years. The harp shows beautifully, inalmost perfect condition. The gold has some wear but is in very good condition for an older instrument. There is a crack in the crown on the backside but not visible. The harp has a beautiful warm sound, esp. in the middle and lower registers. It rings out very nicely. Asking $22,500 OBO. Harp dolly also available for $250.

For Sale: Salvi Arianna Concert Grand Pedal Harp. Serial number 15437, built in 2009. I am the original owner of this remarkable instrument, and it has been lovingly cared for its whole life. It is in near-perfect cosmetic condition and excellent structural condition. This Arianna is a bit special as it has a “transitional” soundboard design which allows for better projection and balance across the registers, and the sound is very warm and resonant while still being clear. It has been restrung and regulated within the past year.
New the Salvi Arianna sells for $55,000. I am asking $36,500. A three-piece cover set, six-wheel dolly, wooden music stand, wooden bench, and tuning key are included in the sale. The harp is located in Kern County, but I am willing to drive it up to the Bay Area. For additional information, including photos, recordings, and condition report, please contact Peter at [email protected]. **This harp is still for sale, but has been moved to the East Coast.
