Une harpe à leviers 34 cordes apportant le son légendaire et l'artisanat Lyon & Healy au marché des harpes à leviers, avec un son brillant qui projette bien et des mécanismes de leviers Truitt fiables.
The Lyon & Healy Ogden occupies a unique space as the quintessential bridge between the folk world and the concert stage. While many lever harps lean toward a mellow, breathy 'Celtic' tone, the Ogden carries the signature 'Chicago sound'"resonant, articulate, and surprisingly punchy. The Sitka spruce soundboard provides a crispness and projection that allows it to command a room, avoiding the muddiness often found in mid-range lever instruments.
Build quality is exactly what you'd expect from this storied manufacturer. The maple body feels incredibly stable, and the inclusion of Truitt levers is a significant win; they offer smooth, reliable engagement without choking the string's natural vibration. For the transitioning student, the string tension and spacing are intentionally reminiscent of a pedal harp, making it an ideal preparatory instrument. However, folk players accustomed to light-tension strings might find it a bit of a workout for the fingers.
At this price point, you are paying a premium for the brand's legacy, but the Ogden holds its resale value better than almost any other lever harp on the market. It's a professional-grade workhorse that balances portability with a high-fidelity sonic profile, making it perfect for gigging professionals or serious intermediate students who refuse to compromise on tonal clarity.
