Handgefertigte amerikanische 36-saitige Hakenharfe aus Rising Sun, Indiana, mit massiver Fichtendecke und Kirschkörper, die warmen, intimen Ton erzeugt.
The Rees Aberdeen Meadow is a masterclass in American lutherie, bridging the gap between portable folk instruments and professional-tier performance. Handcrafted in Indiana, its build quality is impeccable, featuring a solid spruce soundboard that pairs beautifully with the cherry body. Sonically, it delivers a sophisticated, 'woody' resonance. The bass is authoritative without being boomy, while the upper register possesses a sweet, crystalline sustain that feels remarkably responsive to a light touch.
Playability is where the Aberdeen Meadow distinguishes itself. The string tension is thoughtfully calibrated"firm enough for precise articulation but forgiving enough for long sessions, making it an ideal choice for intermediate players or therapeutic musicians. The ergonomics of the 36-string frame are well-considered, providing a full range without feeling cumbersome or overly heavy.
While the street price places it in a competitive bracket alongside giants like Dusty Strings, the Rees offers a unique tonal intimacy that feels more 'boutique.' One trade-off is that it lacks the sheer percussive projection of a maple-bodied harp, which might be a concern for those playing in unamplified, loud ensembles. However, for solo performance, recording, or folk circles, its tonal complexity is hard to beat. It's a soulful, 'forever' instrument that justifies its investment through sheer character and consistent craftsmanship.
