Dyer Symphony Harp Style #5 Model Harp Guitar, made by Larson Brothers, c. 1918, made in Chicago, natural top, dark stained back and sides finish, mahogany body and neck, spruce top, ebony fingerboard.
Overall length is 42 in. (106.7 cm.), 15 5/8 in. (39.7 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 3 15/16 in. (10 cm.) in depth at side, taken at the end block. Scale length is 25 1/2 in. (648 mm.). Width of nut is 1 7/8 in. (48 mm.). Well played, but no major damage or abuse. A LOT of topwear around the strings (even the sub-basses) the top has a deep wear spot below the high E. Dings, scrapes and general finish wear overall but no large areas of loss or added finish. Center split through bridge repaired, but no other cracks. A very original example, like all of these a truly wonderful sounding instrument.
