May I show you my latest project?

No, it's not a Cobra (I wish), but if I can sell 4 of these, I will have the body and frame. It's called a Harp Guitar. Like the Cobra, the first time I set eyes on one, I knew I had to have one. But they are expensive... 7-20K expensive for originals that were produced in the roaring 20s (Dyer, Knutsen, et al). So I decided to make them. I cannot command top dollar now, I have no reputation. But I can assure you that they are worth 5-8K. When it is done, it will have 6 normal fretted strings, and 6 sub-bass harp strings that stretch from the ornate peghead to a ebony bridge shared with the other six strings. Like the Cobra, it's a labor of love.

wow
had never seen one of these before - had to search you tube sounds sensational - do you play the harp guitar? good luck with your production LoBelly |
Very nice work.:cool:
All you need to do is sell one to one famous person and you will be off and running. Good luck. |
No, I have never played one... looking forward to it! The following is an ode to Stephen Bennett who resurrected interest in this beautiful instrument.
