Me too Ralphie.

There should be a nyckelharpa cooperative. Group goes in together on one instrument then work out playing schedule. Save up anr purchase another instrument, rinse, repeat until all members have one.

Sam,

Where are you based... roughly?

I don't need an exact location but I was wondering if you might be in easy travelling distance.

Sigh - I'd love to get my hands on your harpa Sam. I've passed this onto the Nyckelharpa UK group though. I'm sure we'll find someone to take loving care of your instrument! I love my Olle Plahn instrument, so can totally endorse him as a maker. :)

What on earth is a Nyckleharpa anyway? I've been around musical instruments for 50+ years so have obviously missed something...
