I'm pretty happy...
...even though it wasn't quite what I was trying to get. The information says a2-a5 and being unfamiliar with both this type of pitch numbering and harps, I was expecting that - however, this harp goes from A3 to A6, or in terms I can understand, a to a2.
So while it's a whole octave higher than I needed (and now I also finally know that it's rare for them to go lower than C3/c) it has a beautiful sound, and for a complete newbie like myself it's a very very good instrument. Lightweight to carry around to music events and choir gatherings.
Well, I sold it away and got a 27 string one, c to a2, which is an absolute nightmare to hoist around. Take my word. If you only want to do light minstreling about, 22 is ENOUGH.
Now I do weddings with the 27 string and use my 22-string lute harp for drunken park singing purposes. (I've restrung that to a to a2 because the highest string were way too tight to play... harps will be the death of me. Have fun <3 )
