Description: Oscar Schmidt BH Model (EBH) Autoharp36-Strings 15-Chord BarsNO missing strings 15 vs 21 Chord Autoharps: What’s the Difference?When shopping for autoharps, one of the first questions newbies have is: What’s the difference between the 15 and 21 chord models? The standard advice from manufacturers is: Beginners should go for 15 – for easier playabilityAdvanced players should go for 21 – for more tonal options. The harp offered here is the EBH model as it has the Eb, D, and F7 chord bars This instrument was missing the #8 G string when it came in so we replaced that so there is now a full complement of strings. One of the hinges on the chipboard case is damaged so needs repair if want to continue using this case - most folks end up getting a nice padded soft case so this chipboard case will serve in the interim. There are no cracks in the soundboard or on rear of instrument. You'll want to obtain a tuning wrench as one is NOT included in this listing - the best source for tuning wrenches that I can suggest is d'Aigle autoharps in Seattle. (go to autoharp.com ). I would suggest either a Tee handle wrench or for a few bucks more, a goose-neck style wrench - the gooseneck style wrenches give you a lot more leverage when fine-tuning so you don't overtighten and break a string. Though this harp has all of its strings you'll eventually need some new strings, singles or a full set - this BH model harp uses ball end strings. The best source of quality strings for an autoharp these days is Schreiber Autoharps. They manufacture their own strings, and supply most of the high-end autoharp makers and players. The good news is that you can get Schreiber strings from d'Aigle, last I checked. There are plenty of places offering single strings or full sets here on Ebay including original OS strings. **(Please see pictures for details as they are a part of the description and are images of the actual item being offered.)
