Salvi Juno 27 Mahogany Sipario Bioc.

I received my Salvi Juno 27 a week ago, arrived in best condition with good packaging and care. Thanks to Thomann for this. Although this is my first ever Harp that I set my eyes and laid my hand on, I have been playing Guzheng (a Chinese Zither) for a while thus a lover of String Instruments, I hope my insights might help someone and my fellow Guzhengers once they fall in love with this beautiful instrument and are considering their options. Here we go: I chose this Harp because I know similar to playing guzheng, the sound quality is a “must”, for that everything that related to the sound quality of the instrument must be taken into consideration: the type of wood, the strings, the mechanism for the levers, even the quality of the tuner … I made mistake with purchasing my first few guzhengs (i never touched them again after playing on a good sound quality one. Who wants an instrument that is quickly out of tune?) and wouldn’t want to repeat the mistake. I’m extremely happy with my choice of a Harp this time. The feeling I had from the first glissando or fingering exercise just melt my heart. Salvi Harp is so beautiful and elegant. With this Harp, I have that feeling when I played on my most favorite “Caile” Guzheng from its string tension with warm and melow bass strings, clear and sweet in treble section, I don’t own a Hong Sheng Zheng (only guzhengers will understand me!). I did my research when I wanted an affordable lap Harp for carrying around with good sound quality, best possible cradtmanship and lovely to the touch…., so while I still miss few bass strings for choosing the Salvi Juno, this beauty met all my demands. If you don’t plan to carry your harp to play outdoor, its advisable that you go for a 34 string option as your first Harp.

As I'm In the very early days of learning to play the lever harp, I carefully researched which one I felt would fulfil my needs. I settled on the Salvi Juno 27 for its size, range and particularly its sound. It hasn't disappointed in any way - I love it! The tone is obviously very much a personal thing. I happen to prefer a bright, ringing tone which the Juno has, as opposed to the more mellow sounds of other similar sized harps. The Salvi is beautifully made - a class instrument.
The service from Thomann was first class, delivery was prompt and packaging secure. Very happy customer!

Ich bin ein absoluter Anfänger auf der Harfe, habe aber ansonsten einen sehr musikalischen Hintergrund und ich bin extrem zufrieden und glücklich mit diesem Instrument. Vor allem als Einsteiger hat es sich sehr gelohnt, zunächst zu der 27-saitigen Harfe zu greifen. Der Klang ist phantastisch, die Verarbeitung wundervoll. Definitiv empfehlenswert, es macht große Freude, darauf zu spielen und mit einem so hochwertigen Instrument das Harfespielen zu lernen.
