In fact I started the harp for almost a year with this instrument there, so I have no basis for comparison. It is a friend who advised me to start with that. With experience I will repeat, why not? The quality / price seems good. The blades are thinner than others and as a result of the harmonic changes are said to be easier. What I can confirm since I only just beginning to dip the trick. The sound is good I think. So 10/10
