Description

The dignified and beautiful image of the seven-string harp is also a symbol of the lyrical poet Erato. All of the Lyre have one thing in common, which is to Liberate the pure tone from the materialized instruments and materials. When you gently tap a string, it creates a continuous whistling effect within the space. This pure sound, free from any material, can sing and relax our body and mind. 16 Strings Lyre Harp With more strings and tones compared to 7 or 10 strings harp, you don't need to tune or exchange the strings again and again when you want to play more different tone songs.

  • Great instrument!!
Size: Lyre 7 Strings
The media could not be loaded. Great product! Pleasant sounds. Easy to tune and holds tuning well. If you're going to trying different tunings from the suggested G pentatonic, the instrument works well with higher tunings and tension.

  • Bought this to learn to play music - really happy so far
Size: Lyre 7 Strings
The media could not be loaded. I wanted to start learning music and decided to begin with a lyre, so I chose this one because it had a low price and some good reviews. It's been about a week, and I'm enjoying it a ton so far. The sound is bright, warm, and clear when I pluck it. The nice thing is that the lyre sounds great even when I don't know what I'm doing. It's easy to hold and extremely lightweight, to the point where when it was delivered, I thought the instrument wasn't even included in my delivery box. Overall I think this was a great choice to start with. The 7 strings are limiting if I want to try and play anything other than children's songs, but they're also simpler and easier to learn as a complete newbie to both music and instruments in general. The price is affordable as well, so I'd imagine that if anyone wants to just try out a lyre or maybe gift one to a child, this would be a good one. Attached is some audio I recorded of my lyre practice, about a day or two after I got it. Ignoring the air conditioner rumble, you can hear what it sounds like in the hands of a complete beginner. The audio is completely unedited. ... show more

  • Stellar sounding instrument! Excellent value!
Size: Lyre 16 String w/Sound Hole
The media could not be loaded. Absolutely fantastic instrument! I fell in love with the sound of this Lyre and I’m really impressed with the quality and what you get for your money.. the lyre has excellent sustain and it simply feels great holding it, very comfortable. The set comes with the lyre a transducer for amplification which I was really impressed with. Watch the accompanying video. You also get extra strings a tuning wrench and a soft case. The case is the only part id like to see improved upon, I’d like a little more protection but it does just fine. Finally, I found tuning the lyre to not be a problem at all. I simply stretched the strings as I was bringing the instrument up to pitch and in no time it settled in nicely. I highly recommended this set if you are interested in giving this gorgeous sounding instrument a try! ... show more

  • Great quality, just needs a day or so
Size: 16 Strings
Very nice instrument, especially for the price. The sound is lovely, the ability to plug it into an amp is fun, and the extra set of strings is very welcome, as, like other reviews have mentioned, tuning requires a pretty fine touch. I would disagree with the reviews saying it doesn't hold its tuning well; it doesn’t initially, and you will have to retune it 2-4 times while the strings settle, but that’s a temporary problem you will encounter with new strings in any instrument. After day one it stays essentially where you put it; I’ve had no problems. I would, however, recommend getting or having an actual tuner (which can easily clip onto the back) over an app, just because the pegs are very sensitive and getting it right on the note is something of an exercise in patience (doing 16 strings three times with the level of careful fiddling this demands, I’d like it to actually be in tune). I’m enjoying this lyre thoroughly and would recommend it to beginner musicians as well as anyone more experienced looking for something new to play with, as I was. Just use tiny twists when handling the pegs and you’ll be set. ... show more

  • I like it
Size: 16 Strings
The media could not be loaded. My first night. I've been playing with it for an hour or so. Its got a nice mellow sound. My fingering isnt perfect. The method of plucking definitely affects sound. Thus is a fairly good sample. A pick is a little cleaner. The lyre has a fairly light feel. It looks and feel well made, with a nice smooth look. Mine is not perfectly in tune yet, but the process is simple. I'm very glad I got it. ... show more

  • Tuning comments
Size: 16 Strings
I love it. I've been unable to play my many guitars due to my hands not cooperating. This sounds great. A note for people who might benefit from tuning suggestions: 1. Don't rush to tune it the day you get it. Take it out of the box and let it set out for at least a day to get up to the "room temp" in your house. I got a wood looking stand, which is two pieces that you slot together to make a curved guitar or small instrument stand. Works perfectly on the counter. 2. When you go to tune it the first time, know that it is going to take you about an hour to do it. You want to tune it very carefully, in TINY, less than 1/32 of an inch movements. 3. The tuning it "set for" starts with the largest string, on the left, as a "G" string. So, it's: G, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, A 4. I put my electric tuner, DEAD CENTER of the thinnest part of the lyre, clamped on right behind the strings. 5. Put your tuning tool on the peg, holding it in your hand like you would the handle of a mug of coffee. Put your THUMB on the peg. 6. You want to tune "up" to your note, not down from past your note. NOTE: The very first time you tune the strings, they will be "falling out of tune" quickly, as they stretch to their full length. This is normal. For THAT reason, when you do your first series of tunings, once you have "hit" the note, don't worry or try to "tune it back down " if you went slightly over the perfect center mark on your tuner, into the high side. Why, because, in this FIRST TUNING session, it's going to relax and drop to the low side of the center mark on your tuner. You will fix all that at the end of tuning all the strings. You might be fixing that for a couple days, until the strings have finished stretching. 7. Start on the heavy, "wound" "G" string on the left. Make TINY, TINY, MOVEMENTS. Squeeze your hand tight on the handle of tool, while your thumb rests on the peg. You will feel imperceptible movement on the peg. You do NOT want to give it a sweeping crank. It doesn't take much, once you are in range, to go way overboard. If you crank away in big movements, it's harder to tune and you could break a string. 8. Once you feel movement, remove the tool and pluck the string to see what the tuner says to you. Put the tool back on and repeat until you get the "G" string tuned. 9. Pluck the next "A" string and tell yourself "This is "A" as you run your finger UP the string to the peg. Doing that sounds stupid, but, if you have ever been on the "wrong peg" for the string you are plucking, and you keep cranking away, because, what you pluck and what you SEE on the tuner is not going to be match right if you are plucking the 3rd string but you are cranking away on the 4th tuning peg. I learned that the hard way while tuning a 12 string guitar. 10. So, tune that "A" string, then the next "B" string, the "C" string, the "D" string, the "E, the "F" and the "G" string. If you have trouble believing your tuner, it helps to pluck the strings you have already tuned, up to the one you are working on, to "Hear" where you are. 11. You are next going to tune the first of the thin, "unwound" strings, which is an "A" string. NOTE: The "unwound", thinner, strings, will break if wound too tightly. So, if you give it a bunch of sweeping cranks, instead of imperceptible movements, that might be your result, as the thinner strings require much LESS of an adjustment before they change notes. 12. After you tune that "A" string, go back to the FIRST, heavy, "G" and gently tune your way back all those strings to that "A" string you just tuned. TINY movements, as it doesnt take much pressure to change a note at that point. NOTE: As you retune the thin strings for the SUBSEQUENT times, it takes even LESS pressure, so, be careful. 13. Tune the "B" and "C" and "D" strings. 14. Go BACK to the first string again, and gently bring all the other strings back into tune, clear up to the "D" string you just tuned. 15. Tune the "E" and "F" string. 16. Go BACK to the first string, AGAIN, and bring them all into tune. BY NOW, YOU WILL NOTICE that you ARE able to get dead center on your tuner screen, without wavering over, as the strings are stretching and holding the notes better. 17. Tune the "G" and "A" strings. 18. Go BACK to the first "G" string and adjust the tuning again. 19. Play the instrument for awhile. Then, go back and adjust the tuning again. 20. Put it away on ata stand or some manner of tablet stand, to keep it at from having the bag or anything else accidentally touching the strings, and, allow it to rest at room temp to continue its "New String" stretching. When you pick it up tomorrow, and, thereafter, you will notice that the strings are staying in tune. Remember to never CRANK on these strings. Just tightening your hand on the handle, while it's on the peg, will cause imperceptible movements. For me, I would rather tune UP to a note than go back and forth, up and down, trying to hit the note perfectly. Always go up. The reason I did this, at length, wss because I read a bunch of comments for people who got discouraged or quit trying to tune their instruments, or, thought their instrument was defective. ( I read those reviews cumulatively across all brands of lyre reviews that I read). So, I though this might help somebody with their decision to try this kind instrument. ... show more
