Packaged very well. No scratches or dents. Came with extra strings 2 picks a tuning tool a cleaning cloth. Everything I expected. There��s an app it suggests in the booklet to help when tuning. I would advise not tuning it to where the book says. Instead of doing it G4 do G3 ?????? I broke 2 strings before realizing I needed to do it a number lower than suggested in the book.

I love my new lyre! The wood, as you can see from the picture, is darker than on the one in the product pictures, but I like it even better like this. The sound, after some careful tuning, is very good (even my mother says so and, unlike me, she's a musician and actually knows something about this). It was said before in a review here but I can only stress it again: Go to Youtube and look for the Kalimba tabs of songs you want to play! The number tabs are exactly the same, and the little booklet, that comes with the lyre, tells you which tone is what number and where it is on the harp. Once you got that down, you can play any song with kalimba tabs and there are heaps of materials on the web to choose from. Have fun!

An absolutely amazing instrument it is so calming to play. It was easy to tune it with the app and it looks amazing, it can be used as an instrument and decoration piece. I really appreciate them throwing in the extra strings because as I was tuning mine I tightened it too much and it broke but that wasn't a problem with the extra strings. It's honestly an amazing instrument to play, my mind just feels at peace when I play it. Overall an amazing instrument!

This Donner DLH-002 Lyre Harp made of Mahogany is absolutely stunning! It's very well designed with a 10 Metal String Bone saddle and a set of extra strings! This
Ancient Greece Style Lyre Harp also came with a Tuning Wrench and Black Gig Bag that is like a cute little backpack. There's a couple of picks and a cleaning cloth plus a booklet that explains how to tyne it and includes a couple cute short songs to learn! This was actually more than expected and I'm super pleased!

I love this instrument! I'm inexperienced with harps and lyres but this one has a beautiful sound, and I feel like the copper bridge attributes to that. I also love that the strings come through metal eyelets instead of just holes in the wood, as I know strings can cut into wood over time with tightening and tuning.
I was careful with tuning and tuned it a bit every day for about 4 days, so I didn't snap any strings, but im thankful it comes with an extra set of strings.
I'm very pleased, and I'll definitely be back if I come upon any new instrument needs!

This lyre came in a great carry bag and inside there's a tuning device along with some extra strings. I am new to this but found it very easy to tune and play. I use it mainly to play nursery rhymes or kids songs so I ended up tuning the strings to c,d,e,f,g,a,b instead of the recommended notes.

Really fun to play this! It's smaller than I expected, but sounds very rich regardless. The carry bag and accessories is a real bonus. I'd recommend grabbing a Donner digital tuner (seen in one of my pics) as you'll be tuning this a lot in order to change the key of the strings. It's pretty easy to do it by ear too though.
The whole family loves this so far and we look forward to many tunes with it around the camp fire this summer.

Beautiful little heart! This is a great instrument to start off playing. It sounds beautiful and you can play nice melodies. The heart is made from beautiful wood . It comes with extra playing strings. You also get a tool to tune in your harp. Even comes with a small book with a couple of songs you can play. This is great when you just wanna play some nice music around a fireplace or just around people.

As a beginner I don't know what to expect but I really want to learn to make good music with a harp. Buying this product is a good step to learn. It comes with a learning guide. I had to learn how to tune it(came untuned when delivered) but it sounds so well after that. The wood seems to be a good quality too. I like that this comes with a protective case and extra strings too.

The packaging was solid. Tightly packed, thick cardboard box, the hap was contained in a lightly padded nylon softshell case.
It was not tuned out of the box but with a tuner and included tuning wrench, I was able to tune the 16 strings in under 15min. Sounds close to a Celtic harp. The Soundbar was made from what looks like brass or bronze that is textured and handmade.
They included a manual for tuning instruction and some songs that you can play but your journey doesn't end there. With some minimal music-theory, you can even tune it differently to have minor keys mixed in though it might not be recommended.
The sound has some good sustain to it, thanks to the solid mahogany body and sound bar. Strings stay in tune pretty well. I enjoyed this instrument.

With my nephew over more frequently due to virtual school. I��d figured we both should learn an instrument together. Very easy to pick up and just learn. Going to buy another so we can play together.

I love finding inexpensive and "alternative" instruments to learn and play. This is definitely under that category! I have a couple of psaltries and a small harp and a rather larger harp that I can't play yet, but this is a small-medium harp that I can easily hold in my lap and can tune easily. It's really easy to play, and I'm having fun experimenting with playing different tunes. It's got a good range and a nice woody sound and reverbs very well. Very pleasurable to play. And I absolutely love the case that it comes with! Plenty of room for extras and I'm impressed that this actually came with an entire extra set of strings, a tuning lever, a pick (which I probably won't use as I prefer to pluck with my fingers), and a nice cleaning cloth. The entire set is just beautiful and worth every penny.

The Donner Lyre Harp is a beautifully crafted instrument. I've always wanted a lyre harp and was finally able to purchase one for myself and I'm so happy with my choice. This harp is a beautiful color, it has a sweet, intricate design on the front. The piece is not too heavy, but it has nice weight and feels solid in structure. The gold strings included compliment the color of the wood nicely. Also, the travel bag the harp came with doesn't exactly look like an instrument bag, which is nice for incognito carrying! I love that the piece came with extra strings, picks, wrench for tuning and a wipe cloth. I can't wait to get started playing with the songs included in the complimentary booklet.

So, I picked this up on a whim honestly (never played a lyre harp before), b/c it seemed kind of fun.
The instrument itself is well made. It has a nice wood grain to it, and a nice satin finish to the wood. The hardware all seems solid, and the tuning pegs hold tuning well. I'm still figuring out how exactly how to play it, but once you get it tuned up, it is really fun to just pluck around on.
The accessories that come with it (bag, tuning wrench, ect) all seem well made and do the job.
The only complaint I really have with this is that the body of the instrument is too thick to put any of my clip on tuners, so I had to use a tuner app on my phone. I'll have to look around and see if I can find a clip on tuner that has a wider "mouth" to use with this I guess.

I have always wanted a harp, but due to the size, it is just not feasible; however, when I came across this lyre-harp, it intrigued me, and I am really glad it did. It is a really pretty instrument and not a bad piece of d��cor/conversation starter. I really like the sun design and the color of the wood. The lyre has 16 strings, which at first glance can appear daunting, and this is the first time I have used a 12 frequency tuner (well at least an app version). I really cannot stop putting it down, and I have been playing it multiple times a day. It is a lot of fun and surprisingly relaxing. This really is one of the easiest instruments to learn, and is probably appropriate for most ages other than small and young children. The harp comes with a case, a booklet/tuning guide, tuning wrench, picks/polish cloth, and an extra set of strings. My only complaint, is that I wish there was an electric version. I love my little harp!!!!

The Donner DLH-003 Lyre Harp is a really fun little instrument. The DLH-003 has 16 strings, and it was pretty easy to tune. I'm a guitar player, but I like to futz around with other instruments, especially stringed instruments. I used the Tunable app on my Android phone to help me tune all the strings to their proper note and octave.
The build quality seems very solid, and it is nicely finished. The description says that the bridge is copper. This isn't exactly true. Rather, the bridge seems to be made from brass. The tuners are steel. I really like the shoulder bag they include, and I was honestly surprised that Donner included an extra set of strings. I wasn't expecting that, but that's really good because I can imagine someone with less experience breaking a string while attempting to tune up this instrument for the first time. A tuning wrench, a polishing cloth, and a helpful instruction booklet were also supplied.
My goal, with instruments such as these, is to give my kids the opportunity to play music whenever inspiration strikes. I didn't have that opportunity growing up, and I can already see that parenting philosophy paying off. While this Lyre is not a child's instrument, I can certainly attest to the fact that kids love it. It sounds so pretty, even with a lack of training. My kids loved it immediately and took turns playing it.
It's also worth noting that the Donner DLH-003 looks really good as a piece of wall art. I can imagine it being a conversation starter as friends come over to visit and want to try it out for themselves.

It��s amazing how good this instrument sounds, even when you��re merely improvising. No matter what string(s) you play, it��s all good! The lyre harp arrived quickly and included a great carrying case, along with picks, a tuner and a whole set of replacement strings.
Although it comes fully stringed, it did need tuning right out of the box; however, it��s not difficult and just tiny turns will do it (and there��s a little manual included to help you get started.) It may take a few days for the strings to totally settle but once you have it tuned to your liking, it��s easy to maintain.
The sound resonates wonderfully and it��s very relaxing to play. I��m very pleased that I got the 16 string model because of all the possibilities it presents. I��d recommend this for people who enjoy making music regardless of their musical background.

I just loved this instrument, the quality is awesome, the attention to detail is great and it feels and sounds amazing. If you are looking for a nice instrument that is easy to carry out and sounds amazing, this is the product for you. The wood feels great, the strings too and it even comes with two picks and a set of spare strings. I have been playing it no stop since I got it.

I'm a musician by trade and play all kinds of instruments. I've never played a Lyre, but I've mic'd them in a production environment and I was always intrigued by the sound - very cool with some verb and a short tail delay. So I bought this to add to my collection of instruments and I am not disappointed. It came well packaged in a nice case, with a tuning tool and even an extra set of strings. As far as tone and playability, I have nothing to compare it to but I can say that I'm very happy with the natural sound and it's already sparked some ideas for future songs. Worth every penny that I paid for it!
