Harp Spectrum (2555 words) |
| Paraguayan harp: Generally, any South American-style harp characterized by a large soundbox with a rounded base, very light weight, closely-spaced light tension strings (usually nylon), a relatively flat harmonic curve, and with the strings running up through the center of the neck, which are tuned with gear-style tuners (like a guitar). |
| Common sizes of pedal harps are petite, with approximately 40 strings or less and standing around five feet tall; semi-grand, with approximately 45 strings and standing 5-1/2 feet tall; and concert grand, usually with 47 strings and standing six feet tall. |
| triple-strung harp: A harp with three courses of (usually gut) strings, in which the outer two rows are tuned identically in a diatonic scale and the inner row is tuned to provide all the additional semitones of the chromatic scale. |
