I think there is a third category: people who want one but don't want to
pay the price to be a bass harp owner.  That would be me!  I would like
to have a bass (and chord!) harp to check them out, but can't really
justify the expense knowing what I know about myself (lots of dreams,
but little time!).

Now, if anyone wants to donate an old working bass and/or chord to my
collection, I am not too proud to accept.   :)
