HARDSHELL CASE
Each of our harp guitars comes with a custom-made form fit hardshell case with brown vinyl outer, plush gold inner, gold hardware and leather handle:
DR. FRET ver. 3 DR. REST (new!)
DR. FRET ver. 3 is the coolest option yet for expanding the range of the harp strings. Easily fingered behind the pickup, DR. FRET ver. 3 can be placed at any location along the string, allowing countless possibilities of added notes. One example: if the harp is tuned in a sharp(#) key, DR. FRET ver. 3 can be placed to give flatted (b) notes. This capability immensely expands the melodic and chordal range of the harp. DR. FRET ver. 3 will not hurt the harp guitar's oil finish and is easily removable.
DR. REST is a new innovation that allows the player to sit and play the HG comfortably, without the need for a strap.
Using an embedded magnet system, DR. REST clips onto the lower bout of the HG without any screws or tape.
It can be pulled off just as easily, making it great for live performances when switching from sitting to standing must be done quickly.
Great for players with neck or shoulder problems. With DR. REST, the left hand and shoulder are remarkably free to move, giving yet another HG playing experience.
DR. HOOK is great for securing the cables out of the way. Originally designed for use on standard electric guitars,
DR. HOOK is a CNC-machined, patented accessory that has been on the market since 2006. We offer a new version
just for our harp guitars, and players have found they can't live without it.
