Oscar Schmidt OS11021FNE 21-Chord Acoustic-Electric Autoharp - Natural

The Oscar Schmidt OS11021FNE brings together classic autoharp tradition and performance-ready upgrades, making it an exceptional choice for both seasoned musicians and newcomers. Its 21-chord configuration offers broad musical flexibility, while a flamed maple top and premium natural gloss finish provide visual elegance worthy of the stage. A rock maple pin block and the exclusive FT600 Fine Tuning System ensure consistent, precise tuning—one of the most crucial factors in autoharp performance. With a built-in passive pickup for clean amplification, the OS11021FNE delivers handcrafted tone and modern acoustic-electric convenience in a beautifully designed instrument.

Flamed Maple Construction for Bright, Clear and Resonant Tone

At the heart of the OS11021FNE is its flamed maple top, chosen for its lively, articulate tonal properties and striking visual character. Maple’s natural stiffness produces excellent projection and clarity, allowing each chord—whether major, minor or dominant 7—to ring with balanced definition. The rock maple pin block adds both structural durability and tuning integrity, helping the instrument maintain stable pitch even under the tension of its full 21-chord setup. Together, these tonewoods create a responsive, reliable acoustic platform with crisp highs, solid midrange presence and a clean, bright voice ideal for ensemble work or solo performance.

Passive Electronics and FT600 Fine Tuning System for Stage-Ready Precision

Designed with live performance in mind, the OS11021FNE features a built-in passive pickup that captures the autoharp’s natural acoustic tone with clarity and accuracy. It offers straightforward plug-and-play compatibility, making it easy to amplify in studio or on stage without complex controls or coloration. The exclusive FT600 Fine Tuning System elevates the playing experience further, providing smooth, micro-adjustable tuning that dramatically simplifies setup and maintenance—especially important for an instrument with so many strings under tension. With its thoughtful craftsmanship, stage-ready electronics and rock-solid tuning stability, the Oscar Schmidt OS11021FNE is a versatile, player-friendly autoharp perfect for any setting.
