Overview

For on-stage playing, this acoustic-electric autoharp adds a passive electronic pickup to a maple and spruce body, with a fine tuning system and a rock maple pin block meant to keep pitch steady.

The reason to buy is the bundle: an amplified autoharp with the tuner, cable, bag, polish, cloth, wrench and finger picks needed to get going. The limit is a listing that never states the chord count, with the string field reading as four.

Who it's for

A stage player moving from an acoustic autoharp who wants to plug into a PA. A buyer who needs a documented chord set or a left-handed layout should look at other listings.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Passive pickup for amplification

  • Rock maple pin block
  • Tuner and cable included
Cons
  • Chord count not stated

Performance notes

A passive pickup sends the string signal through the jack to a PA or amplifier. The pin block holds the tuning pins, and the fine tuning system allows small pitch corrections. The included tuner makes it easy to check pitch before playing.
