Harp-E Electric Harp Plug & Play - Black

Plug & Play Harp·E comes assembled, strung, and regulated.

Harp-E is a labour of love from multi-award winning designer Joris Beets, the inventor of the DELTA harp. Noticing the need for affordable, light-weight, and high quality electroacoustic harps, we redesigned the harp from the bottom up to provide concert quality harps at a mere fraction of the price. Harp-E was designed with both students and professionals in mind to create the perfect instrument for harpists of all skill sets and needs. Being fully customizable, employing a unique microtonal lever system, and weighing in at 7.8 pounds, the possibilities with Harp-E are endless.

Play it straight out of the box! This package includes:

• Fully assembled, strung, regulated, and tested electric Harp·E
• Adjustable stand
• Battery for the internal electronics
• Assembly and tuning keys
• Assembly and usage manuals (via QR code)
• Access to the community group

To fully enjoy and protect your instrument, we highly recommend adding:

- The carrying bag - a nifty carrier/backpack that securely fits the harp and stand and has a spacious front pocket for all your Harp-E needs.
- The detachable strap plus two strap-buckles to play in other positions (delta harp, guitar, etc).

For left-handed players: If you need your harp assembled for left-handed, drop us a note in the comment box on the cart page, just before checkout. 

This package does not include external electronics like cables or effect pedals. We can help you choose ones suitable to your needs.
We will ship the instrument with the tension lowered for the higher strings, to ensure they don't snap in transport when they travel through different climate zones. Just bring it back to tune once you receive it. If you are in a very different climate from our studio in the Netherlands, your harp might need to acclimatize a bit.
