The "harp-E"

As the name suggests, the Harp-E is and electric harp ukulele.

This name is just as unusual as the instrument itself.

In this case we have a tenor ukulele with a 4 additional bass strings, which can be tuned according to the key or the basic notes of the song.

 Mahogany was used for both the body and the top, and this instrument is a good example to show the versatility of a wood.

This instrument is handed over to the future owner in an adapted aluminium case.

 That case hast attached a plaque, which was made from the same wood as the instrument in the case. In this case walnut.
