does anyone play these?

I play the celtic (blade) harp (or clarsach) though not very well. There are at least two accomplished harpists and at least one another starter round the boards. Don't know about double bassists, though I'm sure at least one person has mentioned playing it, but I forget who...

There are a few of us, but I suspect we are mostly moderately experienced and don't start threads about it.

I had a feeling you were one, kenm. I have this weird suspicion Steve H may be another but I could be totally wrong!

I play - but keep it VERY quiet.

but why? you're endangered so to speak!

double bass players rock! so come on dude! speak up!
