HILA is happy to announce that we now have ALL 4 CHICAGO MODELS at our LA. studio.
We invite you to come play, see and hear what they are all about! *
The Chicago models are a great series of instruments for someone moving from lever to pedal, a serious adult student or as a second light gig instrument for the experienced harpist.
LET'S COMPARE: CHICAGO VS 85.
In comparing models the Chicago Concertino and 85 Concertino are similar in size, as well as the size of the Chicago CG-EX and the 85-CG model. Beyond that their construction, looks and sound are considerably different.
The Chicago 40 model has nothing similar to compare it to however this small 3/4 size pedal harp is a class act, possessing a responsive, powerful and full bodied tone.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
Both series are built with high quality sitka spruce soundboards and fine hard maple bodies. The soundboard tempering period with the Chicago series may be less compared to the 85 series and other high end instruments. The Chicago's structure, high wood quality and the action are the same as in the
higher end instruments. The production procedure is where differences lay.
