ANNIVERSARY AND…
I’m amazed to say that Friday, May 1st, marked the 42nd anniversary of my starting Heartland Harps ( actually, Heartland Strings back then). I’ve built harps in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Oregon, North Carolina and now coastal Georgia, built lever and pedal harps, harps strung in nylon, fluorocarbon, gut and wire, made of wood and carbon fiber, with curved soundboxes and straight, and been able to work with some amazing people along the way, both customers and on the production side. Harpmaking, like most good things in life, is very much a team effort, even for individual makers. I still don’t know how I was lucky enough to have stumbled into this life and this community, but I’m grateful every day that it worked out the way it has.
INCREASE
On a more serious note, my cost on the carbon fiber parts has gone up over 50% over the last 10 months, and all the other bits and pieces that go into the harps have had their own increases. I’m no longer able to absorb that difference. So it’s with real regret that I have to increase the prices of the harps effective May 20th, 2026. The new pricing structure is on both the Models pages and the Price Sheet.
“I am in love with my Infinity! I never imagined a harp that weighs less than my music bag, that allows me the freedom to move easily through hospital corridors and in and out of patients’ rooms as a CMP. This is a joy and the color is perfect! Everyone wants to touch it and pick it up to marvel at the portability and sound of my new instrument. Many thanks!”

“I just want to tell you again how perfect this harp is. The sound is exactly what I wanted. It’s amazing how it can be both transparent and haunting at one and the same time. You have pulled off something really really special with this harp. The more I play it (and I’m playing it a lot) the more I am amazed by it.”

“Thank you so much! I love my new carbon fiber Heartland Legend 36 string harp!!! The folks in all my music groups say it sounds great and are very happy to see me play this beautiful harp! It is a great joy to play this harp, and to be able to keep it in the van while running errands. And it keeps the tune! It moves around very easy—it’s so lightweight! I am so pleased and happy with my new carbon fiber harp. I play this all the time! I am sure all the harpists around the world would like to have a lightweight carbon fiber harp!!! Thank you!”
