A certificate of authenticity will be provided. Hand-crafted in Indiana, this autoharp is voiced for a balanced response from bass through treble and sounds good in any key. The setup will be customized to the winner’s satisfaction.  This autoharp features French Polish finish, quarter-sawn solid woods, fine tuners and low, fast action.
