Harp Accessory Comments
Ravenna 26 Detachable Stand with Legs
Our "D" (Deluxe) Ravenna 26 harp packages already include a detachable 4-legged stand in their price.
Our "E" (Economy) Ravenna 26 harp package has option of purchasing a detachable stand and/or internal drop-down leg.
The detachable 4-legged stand permits the harp to stand independently with great stability. It It consists of a base and 4 legs that screw in, all built of lacquered maple. Legs are available in 5" (children 5 - 8 yrs), 8" (9 - 13 yrs) and 12" lengths (older children & adults). The stand attaches to and detaches from the base of your harp quickly and easily with the spin of a knob. The knob has an internal lock nut so will never go missing. The stand will also fit in the pocket of your harp case for easy transport.
The stand provides a more stable harp than the using extendable foot does when playing in a seated position. This is very important for beginner harpers as a "wiggly" harp is physically more tiring if you are not already used to maintaining body posture and harp positioning.

Schatten Pickups for harps
CH-1 - Is designed for use on smaller bodied Celtic harps having 28 strings or less. It provides a simple solution to adding a pickup to a harp as the sensor simply sticks to the soundboard and the jack clips to the edge of any sound port of the back of the harp. Up to 18" of lead wire stores inside the jack assembly keeping everything tidy. It's recommended that you also purchase the Mini Pre(amp) to augment the signal to the CH-1 harp pickup.
CH-3 Artist - The CH-3 Artist pickup system is designed to work flawlessly on both Celtic and Pedal harps. Installation is completely non-invasive; there are no holes to drill and no modifications are required to the instrument. The feet of the pickup base are articulated so that they can rotate to fit the curvature of virtually any harp soundboard.
Dusty Harp Pickup Installs
These are harp-specific pickups for optimal amplified sound. They come in small (P10 for 24 - 30 string harps), large (P20 for 32 - 40 string harps), P25 for 34-string DS Serrana harp and pedal harp (P30) sizes. Pickups consist of four piezo elements spaced on a resin bar mounted inside the soundbox together with a jack mounted through the back of the soundbox. A single guitar cable allows you to plug your harp straight into any amplifier and most PA systems with no need of a preamp box or complicated connections. You can purchase a harp with pickup installed by Dusty Strings or order the pickup separately and self-install it later with the excellent detailed instructions provided by Dusty. Only an additional drill bit is required.
