Tombo Ultimo

Picked up a Ultimo (~$30) model while at the Tombo showroom. I’m new to harp, and have only tried a few models, but the pitch, tone and bendabilty of this harp out of the box was in another class from the Lee Oskar. The smaller size can be a negative. Just IMHO. Interested if anyone else has tried one lately.

Better or worse than the Lee Oskar. I.m reading it as better.

Yes I thought it a better instrument. The slightly smaller size makes it a little more difficult to isolate notes but provides faster response. The width is small and also takes getting used to.

Just discovered another negative, will not work with the magnetic Seydel Gecko out of the box. Needs metal tape.
