FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Answer: Both models feature 22 strings across 3 octaves, but start on different notes. The Eve (G–G) is the most popular choice and works well for traditional folk music, Celtic tunes, and contemporary pieces. The Ena (F–F) starts one note lower, which some players prefer for specific repertoire or to match their vocal range. If you're unsure, the G–G configuration is recommended for most beginners and general use.

Answer: All three lever options allow you to change string pitch mid-performance:
Featherlite levers are lightweight, affordable, and reliable—ideal for beginners or budget-conscious players
Camac levers offer smooth, precise action and are favored by intermediate to advanced players
Loveland levers provide exceptional durability and effortless flipping, perfect for frequent lever changes
Your choice depends on your budget and how often you'll be using the levers during performances.

Answer: The Eve 22 can be played as a true lap harp without a base, resting comfortably on your lap or using the optional lapboard for added stability. However, many players prefer adding a base for floor standing, which reduces strain during longer practice sessions and performances. The base height should match your height for optimal playing posture (see our recommended base height guide above).
