"The Gwydion was magnificent…IF you play wire, well, I don't think I've ever heard better than Caswell's Gwydion"

The Gwydion is one of the finest metal-strung harps available. Combining elements of several of the ancient clarsachs (the original Celtic harps), it is the result of a lifetime’s experience with these magical instruments.
It comes standard with full Caswell Blades in a Walnut body with a Koa or Black Locust soundboard and exotic trim.
The generous traditional-style box and phosphor bronze strings give the Gwydion a remarkable sound: rich, full, and resounding (hear it on Chris Caswell’s Holy Wood). Exotic trim on sound holes and binding.
It uses my Celtic string spacing and is provided with a full set of Caswell Sharping Blades. Comes with an extra set of strings, tuning wrench, and "Welcome to Your Caswell Harp" by Chris Caswell.
