We all realize that the purchase of a harp is a major investment. Not only is cost a
concern, but the sound, spacing of strings, tension and appearance must satisfy the soul,
ear, eye and fingers. It is a pleasure to recommend the harps of Pat
O’Loughlin. My students, members of Healing Harps, and I appreciate these
harps because of their outstanding worksmanship, sound and visual aesthetic. If you
want to give expression to your musical ideas, look at the O’Loughlin harps (and
he’s a nice guy too)!
Ben Brown, Performer and Teacher
I have been impressed by the clean lines, simple beauty and pure tone of
Pat's harps. His careful worksmanship makes for excellent cross strung spacing and
angle parameters. As the quality of spacing and angle determines the playability of
the cross strung harp, this is no small feat! To own one of Pat's harps would be
your very good fortune.
Louise Trotter, Performer and Teacher
My 36 string O’Loughlin (Kestrel) has a wonderful tone, and an especially powerful
bass for a level harp. I like the comfortable staved back, concert string spacing,
good lever action, graceful shape and light weight!
Sunita Staneslow, Performer and Teacher
Pat's harps have a brilliant, balanced sound. In my opinion, he is one of the best
harpmakers in the world!
