Review: Beautiful Instrument, Sounds Amazing, Prompt Delivery! - Arrived ahead of predicted date and in perfect condition! Arrived already pretuned, just needed a little adjustment, and the package contained the tuning wrench and a couple of picks as well, and of course the cable was included. Sounds beautiful acoustic and though my old Fender Acoustasonic amp. Ordered the gig bag and stand (pictures) separately. I partly got this because problems with my neck and shoulders made guitar difficult, but since the autoharp is held almost like a baby, I can play for longer and with almost no pain. Already working on translating my guitar tunes to the harp!
Review: After 6 weeks chord bar no longer functioning - Beautiful looking given as christmas present After 6 weeks chord bar felts falling off. F# no longer plays at all. Not sure why possibly the glue used to attach the felts Will likely have to return it... But going to see about getting another chord bar first, as I really like the look and sound of it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Instrument, Sounds Amazing, Prompt Delivery!
*by O***E on January 20, 2020*

Arrived ahead of predicted date and in perfect condition! Arrived already pretuned, just needed a little adjustment, and the package contained the tuning wrench and a couple of picks as well, and of course the cable was included. Sounds beautiful acoustic and though my old Fender Acoustasonic amp. Ordered the gig bag and stand (pictures) separately. I partly got this because problems with my neck and shoulders made guitar difficult, but since the autoharp is held almost like a baby, I can play for longer and with almost no pain. Already working on translating my guitar tunes to the harp!

### ⭐ After 6 weeks chord bar no longer functioning
*by L***E on January 26, 2025*

Beautiful looking given as christmas present After 6 weeks chord bar felts falling off. F# no longer plays at all. Not sure why possibly the glue used to attach the felts Will likely have to return it... But going to see about getting another chord bar first, as I really like the look and sound of it

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ To start, a few adjustments are in order…
*by W***N on June 14, 2021*

A few adjustments are needed to make it work. Once a key is pressed followed by switching to another key, good chance that the first key (bar) will not release. This is not because of player skill level. The buttons are locking each other due to design issue. Need to file all the buttons in several places to round out the sharp edges to prevent this (see picture). The three legs at the bottom are useless and counterproductive. Can’t hold down the tuning pins with an uneven and wobbly bottom. Should install more legs or simply replace with felt strips to make a flat surface. Strap pins need to be purchased and installed separately and good instructions are available on the internet. Overall a great starter instrument for the price. Solid three and a half stars.
