Kaleea. No, I didn't think repainting it would make it Pentatonic!! Like my grandkids would say: "Duh!!"       The idea is to get a (usually black) autoharp, paint it somthing more colorful, add decals or painted decoration, restring it Tuning It To The Notes of a Pentatonic Scale.    Just didn't know if a certain kind of paint would work best....    You can see angel harps here : http://www.angelharps.com/music_therapy.htm
