Sierra 34 string
The Sierra 34 harp is our most popular harp for the younger student. When buying a harp for a child, you need to consider their right arm being able to reach around the top portion of the neck and body. They should be able to reach the top register of the harp easily for their comfort and to be able to progress.

Celtic II 34 String
The Celtic ll is a wonderful choice for the younger student that wants to play the harp for many years to come. This highest quality harp has a full tone and responsive soundboard that will accommodate your child’s abilities though all their harping needs. Being a bit harder to reach around than the Sierra harps, the Celtic should be reserved for the child with a longer reach and a more mature age (9 and up recommended).
