Starts 1st Octave A - 6th Octave C Note: These strings are for the Hempson 34 harp strung in NYLON. There used to be a choice of Nylon (and Wire) or Tape Wound Strings in the 4th Octaves. We recommend using the strings with which your Hempson 34 was originally supplied. The Tape Wound Strings are no longer available and we recommend substituting them either with lever nylon or lever wire.
N.B.Strings are counted down from the top (high end) of the harp.
