Oscar Schmidt Rare Vintage Guitaro Auto harp 24 Strings 15 Chords with case - $359 - (Andover, MN)

Oscar Schmidt manufactured Guitaro's in the 50s through the early 70s, attempting to take advantage of the guitar's popularity in the folk music revival of that era. Other sellers commonly sold them with their own brand names but most or all resellers still called them a Guitaro The Guitaro's strings are longer than used on medium-sized or larger autoharps, resulting in a lower tone than usual. The instruments have 15 chord bars, and have less strings than most medium or larger sized autoharps, all of which somewhat limits their versatility. Like other autoharps, either fingerpicks or a flatpick can be used. Sara Carter played a Guitaro in some performances, and videos can still be found online showing her playing one.
