The 21 chord os73c reissue is a good instrument that can be used by semi pros if set up properly.
The harp is better made with better wood then the 15 chord version.Many very good Luthiers will sell this harp becasue it was built well and to good standards .The big but is it has only fair action -usually some felt issues -that require a pro to adjust to make it have a decent sound. So have it rechecked by someone you trust. I have discussed this harp with Pete Diagle-Buck Lumbert and Drew Smith all great Luthiers who have at one time or still do sell this model. Most have said the chord action needs lowering sometimes refelting some of the chords and Diagle adds special springs that improves performance.SO this would be a five star harp if Oscar Schmdit would have paid more attention. I would add fine tuners which my harp has ( this is optional however adds about 250.00 improves tuning time rather then sound. ) and with a gig bag you are pretty much spending what a cheaper custom harp would cost. ( do not use OS fine tuners ) However it is worth all the updates as this is a great sounding harp for a beginner ,so you dont get frustrated and for the casual serious player . This harp is also a little lighter which is a blessing at least for me. Also can be set up using the Bryan Bowers chord layout which also makes it easier to play with the chord buttons falling in a natural easy way for your fingers .
