This harp was designed with the player in mind. From the spruce top to the Mahogany hardwood back, you can be assured that this
‘harp will last. It is built for added strength. The solid spruce resists splitting and cracking. The lengthwise grains are straight, close and
dense which provide excellent support. The natural high gloss finish gives this Centurion Autoharp a beautiful look.
The pin blocks in many of
the finest autoharps consist of hard rock maple for extra strength. The pin blocks are laminated rock maple pin blocks meaning they are
specially coated for extra strength. The purpose of the pin block is to firmly hold the tuning pins in place where the strings are attached.
The added strength of the laminated rock maple ensures that everything will stay in the right place. Multiple layers of maple laminations
are cross-banded using a special high frequency, waterproof gluing process. Reversing the grain direction on each layer of lamination
yields incredible strength and the high-frequency waterproof glue seals the laminations protecting the pin block from changes in the
relative humidity.

“An American instrument of American invention.”
The Autoharp is one of the few musical instruments that can claim to be truly American in origin. From its birthplace in Philadelphia to
the present home of Union, NJ, the Autoharp has always been manufactured in the US.
Invented in 1881 and patented in 1882, the Autoharp has had a remarkable hundred-year history. After being proclaimed
“the nation’s favorite musical instrument” and then nearly fading into obscurity, the Autoharp has taken its manufactures on an endless
roller coaster of ups and downs. As a nineteenth century parlor room favorite, it was finally replaced in popularity by the phonograph.
The Autoharp did not die. It retreated to the mountains where it underwent a metamorphosis from a parlor instrument to a folk
instrument. From there it came out into our schools to become a classroom feature, and finally has emerged as a popular instrument for
the serious musician.
