Okay, I swore I wasn’t going to buy another musical instrument, but that sounds great and it is beautiful. I think I’m going to have get me one of those. I can class it as art so I don’t break my promise, right?
i've seen a few vids of yours since recently and i'm confused why you keep laughing constantly....? is someone in the background doing things? i'm just getting distracted by it and keep wondering. cameraperson? child? pet? what's happeninnnnnnng
That's a very unique design. I can't say I've seen a lyre like that before. You bring up an excellent point about the smaller sound chamber making the highs much cleaner. It really does sound nice.
Since ancient times the Lyre has been around, and yet - I never really heard one played even a little, until. I hear you play it. Thank you Molly, I always leave one of your videos smiling.
Oh, isn't that a konghou? I mean, obviously it's a lyre, but the shape in combination with the layout of strings in relation to the soundbox reminds me of the Chinese konghou. Suppose it makes sense considering where it was made.
Interestingly, the konghou is technically classed as a lyre because of how the strings sit in relation to the soundboard. The konghou has characteristic note-bending capabilities which this unfortunately lacks though :(
Molly, you just made me buy this lyre harp and the other 19 string maple mahogany turquoise lyre harp you reviewed in another video! I just ordered both on Amazon, and I can’t wait to try them!
I have seen this on Amazon for quite a while, but I have been afraid to try it because it seemed so different. It's good to know that it has specific positive features that set it apart from others. The sound is a little bit tinny for me. I prefer a more mellow sound, but I do imagine certain music pieces where the sound might be perfect. Thank you for reviewing it!
Im sure you probably could put monofilament strings on it. Here is a little tip I use to make steel strings less tinny. Take a candle and rub up and down the strings. The wax will dampen the tinny sound a bit. Also it will prevent the strings from rusting.
Hi Molly, thanks for the review! You mentioned nylon strings for lyre harps briefly here. Do you have any recommendations? I just cant seem to find nylom strings for lyre harps and I am not a big fan of the sound of metal strongs
ooh what a lovely instrument! I've been after a lyre for ages but couldn't find one I liked, this is the best one I've seen, thank you for the review!

High notes are lovely but the lower notes don’t seem as warm, however, I bet there’s certain music that would benefit from this 😊
I have to ask, do you play any instruments? I see so many videos of reviews and unboxing but never playing.
Thank you so much! Was getting another one. Found it on aliexpress!!

Have you tried the Harpika-a handheld lyre tuned like a kalimba and played with the thumbs?

That is SO beautiful! Would you play that just like a lyre? Anyway, lovely choice. I'm tempted!
I was recently gifted this exact lyre, and wanted to hear how it sounds after tuned, it sounds very nice

You may have mentioned it already, but what materials are the strings made of?
I was wondering, how does it still hold up now?
it's a kind of mix between a harp and a guzheng
I plan to buy one for my sister. She will love it.
Do you know about e Pol on the instrument your playing it when you grow out of tugging strings only try Pol hold
Go downtown to play it at kayak area woods bench near water hedge tell me when you go here in fort worth tx
