Lever Harps
Lever harps are an excellent choice for beginners, students, and musicians who want a versatile instrument that is easier to transport than a full pedal harp.
These instruments use levers to change pitch and are commonly used
in folk, Celtic, and early music as well as in many modern harp arrangements.
At WA Music Co we supply a range of lever harps suitable for:
• beginners starting their first harp
• school music programs
• intermediate students progressing from smaller instruments
• performers looking for a portable harp
Our collection includes carefully selected models known for reliability, sound quality, and playability.

Beginner Harps
Starting the harp is an exciting step, and selecting the right instrument can make learning far more enjoyable.
Many students begin with a smaller or mid-sized lever harp which offers:
• comfortable string tension for developing technique
• clear spacing between strings
• manageable weight for transport
• reliable tuning stability
Generally, most teachers recommend starting on harp with 34 strings or above to give the students a chance to progress as they learn. WA Music Co regularly works with families, adult learners, and teachers to help match students with a harp that suits their level and goals.
If you are unsure which instrument is appropriate, our team is always happy to provide guidance.
Harp Hire
For many new students, hiring a harp is a practical way to begin learning before committing to purchasing an instrument.
Harp hire allows students to:
• start lessons without a large upfront investment
• try the instrument before deciding to buy
• access a quality instrument suited to learning
WA Music Co supports many students and schools through our harp hire program and can help you determine whether hiring or purchasing is the right option.
