    I love her channel! Hearing the harp played with all these different guitar pedals is interesting and sounds good.

    I want to get a harp myself but they are so expensive. The harp she usually uses is like $20k-30k

      Why so expensive? Just because it's a niche market without many makers/buyers?

        Full harps are all made by hand and the traditional ones have fairly demanding material requirements. They cost a shitload because the material for them is harder to come across and the labor to make one requires a master artisan doing manual work.

      Woah that's a lot more than I would expect. I didn't realize they were so pricey.

      EDIT: Harp making is way more involved than I realized https://youtu.be/k7FeC-cU4g0
