It's about the same size as an Oscar Schmidt. Roger Erik, I tried the Music Room -dont have any. Roger |
03 Sep 02 - 05:33 PM (#776394) Subject: RE: Autoharp Gigbag needed in UK From: open mike Brian Bowers has many auto harps- he had really good, insulated bags. you may want to make sure the one you get has padding/insulation layer so that it will be protected from temperature extremes-this will help it stay in tune...i have seen this company booth at some fairs: blue heron here is a link... Blue HeronĀ® Softshell Harp Cases 1-800-899-9096 ... To Create a harp case for your instrument: Trace the base of your harp on a separate piece ... 6. Send all dimensions and the two traced pages to Blue Heron ... http://www.blueheroncases.com/harpcas... I have a case called climate case for my guitar. it has a silver cover which reflects light and heat, i do not htink they make them anymore- might have sold the biz to a guitar company. i think they used to be made by allen guitars (?) in grass valley or nevada city california. |

If you need any more sources to order a bag, let me know. And if you want me to send you the chipboard case, it fits the standard Oscar Schmidt autoharp.Will that fit your Keith Young? |

Openmike, thanks for the info - I'll look into Colorado Cases and Heron. Thanks, everyone, for the assists. |
