"I
got interested in Precisionsound some time ago when I started
looking for non-traditional instruments to spice up my tracks.
Immediately I fell in love with their Swedish Keyharp. To this
day, this has to be on of
my favorite instruments. The Swedish Keyharp (as anyone can
hear from the demo on the Precisionsound site) is in a league
unto itself. I just love this instrument."
