The Lyon & Healy Ogden is a professional-grade 34-string lever harp widely regarded as the gold standard for both advancing students and gigging professionals. Its design mirrors the string tension and spacing of a traditional pedal harp, making it the premier "pre-pedal" instrument for those transitioning to larger orchestral harps.
Key Features & Craftsmanship
- Superior Resonance: Built with a solid Hard Maple body and a Pacific Northwest Sitka Spruce soundboard, delivering a warm, rich tone that projects clearly in any venue.
- Pedal-Like Feel: Features concert-tension stringing (typically gut or high-tension nylon) to build the finger strength and technique required for pedal harp performance.
- Extreme Portability: Weighing only 28 lbs, it is designed for easy transport without compromising on sound quality or structural integrity.
- Adaptable Height: Includes a kit of 4" and 8" removable legs, allowing the harp to "grow" with a student or adjust to a performer's preferred sitting height.
