Triplett Celtic IIS For Sale

I am selling this beautiful harp, which I had custom made the summer of 2008. I am a new harp player and still just learning, and purchased this harp because I wanted a harp that sounded and looked beautiful. Unfortunately, I have a very bad on-going neck, shoulder, and back injury that causes me a lot of discomfort, and sadly, this gorgeous harp is just too heavy for me to play comfortably. I did not know when I ordered it, that it would not really be the "right" harp for me. I was so excited to be taking lessons that I just wanted my very own harp and was suffering from severe harp lust! It has been played less than 100 hours total and unfortunately it has never played anything other than beginner songs. I really want this harp to go to someone that can truly appreciate it and be able to play it. It is way too nice to go on unplayed.

This harp has been kept in tune, in a climate controlled, smoke-free sitting room in my house. It has never been outside.

This is a perfect opportunity to purchase a custom Triplett without the 3-4 month wait!

This harp looks as beautiful as it sounds. It would be perfect for anyone that plays at weddings or other functions because it is is so "shimmery" to look at and produces a wonderful sound that Triplett harps are known for.
