Hugh Craig Single Manual

This single manual harpsichord provides a superb depth of tone and carrying power usually associated with larger harpsichords. The long length of strings, together with the variable thickness and convex construction of the large soundboard area, gives a depth and clarity of sound throughout its whole five octave range.
The player will find an evenness of musical quality through the 61 note keyboard, making this an inspiring instrument for solo or continuo work in the home or concert hall. Hand stops are offered as a standard feature although many people prefer the convenience of a pedal action. The combination of registers or the use of an individual stop allows the player great versatility. Its manageable size makes it easy to transport.
