Harp-E

A glance at Elise's workshop and the preparation process for the unique Harp-E kit, the first flat-packed, affordable electro-acoustic harp with stage-quality sound. The instrument comes in 3 flavours: 'Plug & Play' (fully assembled, strung and tuned), 'String & Go' (pre-assembled, you just need to string and fine-tune the harp yourself), and 'DIY' (an IKEA-style flat-package containing all parts, strings and a PDF manual) for those who want to build their own instrument. Elise prepares each ordered instrument to the requested level and ships them worldwide.
