Pink Floyd Songs Played Splendidly on a Harp Guitar: "Comfortably Numb," "Wish You Were Here" & More
Harp guitars have been around since at least the 19th century, and if you want a good, enthusiastic, intellectual argument on the exact date of its birth, youll find many an organologist ready to do that. (Heres a page filled with information about the subject.) But it was only recently, in 2014, that the Grove Dictionary of Musical Instruments finally recognized the harp guitar as its own thing. New- or old-fangled as it might be, the harp guitar contains both the usual six strings and fretted neck and a neighboring series of unstopped open strings. Well known musicians who have played them include John McLaughlin, David Lindley, and Robbie Robertson.
But look up the instrument on the net and theres one name that will pop up before anybody else: 29 year old Canadian Jamie Dupuis. Hes earned millions of views on his YouTube channel for arranging and performing covers of rock and metal classics.
