I would really like to learn a 19 string harp, but i dont know where i should be looking to purchase one from, is ebay any good, EMS, gears for music?
I dont live near any harp shops or teachers so the internet is my only option to buy from.
Please could someone give me some advice on where to buy a 19 string harp from, also my budget is no more than £200 (i know i wont be able to get much for that price but i would like something for a beginner)
Thank you :)

Hi, can I ask why only 19 strings. I can't recommend and any harps for your budget but can definitely say I would avoid eBay. Have you thought about renting? As a first step I would contact the Clarsach Society which would be a good place to start on working out how you can learn to play. www.clarsachsociety.co.uk/about-us/branches

Clarsach is very expensive iirc. Work out how many months rental would equal buying one outright and then wait and save?
19 strings is very small. I think you will get fustrated quickly. Saving up for a larger one would be preferable.
