Musician Attaches Handheld Harps to His Guitar to Make a 109-String Harp Guitar

MusicianBernth, who enjoysexperimenting with musical instruments,built a gorgeous-sounding 109-string harp guitar. This unique instrument started out as a simple acoustic guitar to which five handheld harps were attached. While it was hard to play, the instrument gave Bernth a wide variety of sound options for his song I Still Miss You".

I can use one hand for rhythm and the other for solos. The harps are all tuned differently resulting in interesting chords. It took a day to tune this new instrument and even longer to figure out how to actually play it. But it just clicked and I wrote this song for it.
