“The Camac Harps - Les Harpes Camac? Yeah, I am.”

You’d look good with a Camac harp. Come in and try them out…you could even order one in cerulean 😎

Happy Independence Day from California Harp Center! Today, we celebrate the incredible tradition of American harp-making.

We are proud to be authorized dealers for our American-made harps, and . From the longstanding heritage of Lyon & Healy in Chicago to the family-owned Seattle factory of Dusty Strings, these two iconic brands represent American musical ingenuity.

We believe that the best way to find your perfect harp is to try them side-by-side. Every harp responds uniquely to a harpist’s touch— from the way the strings feel under your fingers to the resonance you feel against your chest with every note. California Harp Center celebrates choice, independence, and the diversity that makes our harpist community so vibrant. Whether you are looking for the rich, orchestral grandeur of a Lyon & Healy pedal harp or the bright, clear, and resonant magic of a Dusty Strings lever harp, our Hayward showroom is fully stocked and ready for you to find the right fit!

Do you have an American-made harp? Let us know in the comments!

Our newest addition to the showroom arrived today, but this one’s not for sale! Dr. Alan has been eagerly awaiting the delivery of his heirloom 1906 Steinway Model O piano to our showroom. This fully restored antique piano has been in his family for three generations, and was originally given to Alan’s grandmother by her brother-in-law - they used to play piano duets together! Now this piano will be dusted off, tuned up, and have a new life as a recital instrument in our showroom. Time to brush up on those harp concertos! 🪉🎹

Our owner's harp is getting a spa day!! California Harp Center loves working with Laura and Michael Tust for all cosmetic harp needs. We are so lucky to have such a talented team in the Bay!

Aysha'a harp "Duchess" is in need of some gold touch-ups, a new finish on the body, and some soundboard paint disguise where a few battle scars have appeared over the years.

We have another special harp project in the works with Tust Studio... Stay tuned for an amazing harp makeover coming soon!
