Wingert Harp Guitar The Harp Guitar


My Harp Guitar was designed and built at the request of a good friend and customer, Frank Doucette. CLICK HERE to read Frank's excellent article at harpguitars.net.

There are actually three models. The Wingert take on string length and spacing, the Dyer geometry and a Harp Requinto or Mini. The starting price for a harp guitar is $21,000 with mahogany back and sides and a very fine Italian spruce top. The tops that I have selected for these guitars are outstanding. The included case is a custom fit soft case from Colorado Case Company. There are other options available.

The continuing relationship with amazing Stephen Bennett, who joined the Wingert family of players, is a blast. Widely regarded as one of the world's finest harp guitarists, Stephen Bennett has developed a highly melodic style that manifests itself in his original compositions and his arrangements of jazz, pop, and traditional tunes.


"My Kathy Wingert harp guitar is an instrument exquisite to behold and an absolute delight to play, both in terms of how it feels to play it and the sound that flows forth. The tone is fat and rich and round and full and sweet and strong all at the same time. Those qualities are consistent from the lowest sub-bass (tuned as low as an E one octave below the standard 6th string) all the way to the highest frets of the first string (which - thanks to the elegant cutaway - I can easily reach)!

I love this harp guitar and simply can’t stop playing it."

Stephen Bennett
