Precision Tonewood Architecture & Calibration
Every Oscar Schmidt Autoharp® undergoes precise multi-point inspection before dispatch. The body architecture utilizes quarter-sawn bracing coupled with select tone spruce and bookmatched maple backs to yield remarkable acoustic projection and lingering sustain.
Our chord bar housings are CNC-milled to tight mechanical tolerances, preventing key wobble and unwanted mechanical vibrations during rapid accompaniment. Every damper pad is cut from industrial-grade acoustic felt, guaranteeing immediate muting of non-harmonic strings.
