Levers Harp Salvi Gaia

The Gaia harp from Salvi is the first student model designed as a preparatory instrument for pedal harp playing. It is equipped with 38 strings, with tension and spacing that fully match the parameters of the Salvi pedal harp.

This lever harp is specially created for those who want to gradually transition to playing the pedal harp. Thanks to its acoustic characteristics and rich sound, Gaia is also an excellent choice for artists looking for a compact instrument with a sound similar to that of a pedal harp.

A key feature of the Gaia harp is its high build quality, as each component is handcrafted and adjusted at the Salvi factory in Italy. As a result, the levers work precisely and reliably during play, allowing musicians to perform even the most challenging techniques, such as glissandi, harmonics, or arpeggios.

This instrument stands out due to its exquisite combination of traditional craftsmanship, honed by Salvi since 1956, and modern technology. This gives Gaia the perfect balance between sound power and harmony. The harp offers musicians ample opportunities for self-expression thanks to its acoustic properties.

Gaia is available in several finishes, including mahogany, cherrywood, red spruce (natural wood color), green, red, and blue. Additionally, other colors such as orange, pink, ebony, yellow, or walnut can be chosen by special order.

The harp comes with a dust cover, two options for extended legs, and a tuning key.
