After a few years we mutually decided it was better if Easttop took over sales and released it on the big platforms like AliExpress, Amazon, and eBay. Better for general exposure, but there was much less in-depth info available for people wondering what this bigger harp is all about.
Recently I suggested to Easttop a hybrid sales strategy that I think will give the best of both worlds, and has some advantages of its own. They agreed; we did the necessary prep work and it's now operational.
Expertly managed by my business partner David Ireland, we're now taking orders on my website again:

However, the harps will be posted out by Easttop - either from one of their four international warehousees in USA, Europe, UK and Australia, or direct from the factory in China. The advantages of this arrangement are:
1. Stock is always available, because it's coming from the manufacturer! That means fast posting after an order is received.
2. We accept payment in three different currencies: US Dollars, Euros, and British Pounds. This will mean most customers can pay in a currency that suits them without losing on exchange rates.
3. Lucky 13 buyers from my website get the benefit of the wealth of information, tuning charts, playing and instructional videos there. Plus they will get their more technical questions answered by the inventor of the instrument
I'll be making regular short playing videos to highlight the positives of playing a longer diatonic harp. Here are a couple in PowerBender tuning, showing how easy it is to extend your Blues solos over the full 4 octave range.
