Dear Ron, This is a follow-up to the vm message I left you on saturday after the arrival of my beautiful harp bench. I'm so glad i chose the glossy black with colonial aprons and black leather cushion...it is definitely a harp bench worthy of my gorgeous black Thormahlen Serenade! (in fact, i'm copying Sharon Thormahlen and my mentor, Rhett Barnwell, to let them know how perfect your bench is for the smaller thormahlen harps.) It is absolutely perfect...small and lightweight, but so solidly built. Your craftsmanship and customer service is unsurpassed...I appreciate so much your building it for my exact needs...and it was delivered in record time just for the holidays! I highly endorse BBR Woodworks for all musicians searching for a compact, comfortable and beautiful music bench! Congratulations on a job well done...you may add my name to your "most satisfied customer" list! Thank you again...and best wishes for a happy and successful new year 2007! Warmest Regards, Julianne - Georgia (High Gloss Ebony Harp Bench w/Colonial Aprons, Black Leather & Height Adjustment Pegs)

Unlike many other harp stools on the market today that are only built from one or two woods and available in different "finishes", my products are built from the hardwood you choose. For example, if you would like a walnut harp bench, it will be handcrafted from SOLID Walnut. My harp benches have what so many furniture companies have lost......Real Wood! There is simply no comparison of a product built from the real thing to a product stained to appear like it and what better way to match your harp!

And with my supportive and tapered 2 inch cushion built right to the edge of each bench, the sharp 90 degree angle that can cut off blood circulation in the legs is eliminated, thus giving you a comfortable platform to safely and painlessly practice your harp for hours!

Dear Ron, Thanks for the lovely harp bench....your workmanship is beautiful, the color looks great next to my harp, and the cushion is comfortable. At last I have a stool that is the right height so my back and shoulders can be positioned properly without balancing my harp precariously on books. Thank you! Cecile - Virginia (Maple Harp Bench w/Colonial Aprons & Tan Leather)

Many thanks for the harp stool. It looks great, appears to be very well made, is light & small enough for easy transport, and most importantly is comfortable for playing, according to my daughter Robyn. She had a wedding to play the day after she received it, and reported that it worked very well! Again, Thanks. Harry - Ontario, Canada (Alder Harp Stool w/Colonial Aprons & Leather Upholstery)
