Barnett, out of Lehigh Acres, is not a stranger when it comes to building and playing harps.<\/p>\n
“I just finished building my eighth harp!”, said Barnett<\/em><\/p>\n Barnett, also a professional film,\u00a0TV\u00a0and\u00a0voiceover actor, finds time to build harps. There are many kinds of harps, and this one, built by Barnett, is a Paraguayan.<\/p>\n “This latest harp I’ve built is a Paraguayan ‘styled’ arpa (meaning harp). I say ‘styled’ harp, as it is just a bit larger and heavier than a typical Paraguayan harp. They are supposed to weigh only 10 to 14 pounds. Mine turned out to weigh an even 20 pounds.”<\/p>\n According to Barnett there are only three strings used, at this point, to hold the harp together. Strings and tuners are the next part of the project.<\/p>\n Barnett\u00a0sees his harp project being fully completed by this Christmas, but he is proud of the results so far and considers it finished. When the harp is made available for playing, that will be the true test!<\/p>\n “Yes, I not only build harps, I also play them!\u201d , said Barnett This talented entertainer has played and\u00a0performed on many harps\u00a0at several events throughout Southwest Fla. In addition,\u00a0Steve Barnett\u00a0is also a realtor, a character\u00a0actor, a member of\u00a0UFTA\u00a0and has been recently cast in the film “Casting.”<\/p>\n To contact Barnett go to\u00a0sbarnettreality.com<\/a>,<\/p>\n revbarnett@juno.com<\/a>,rents-management-sales.com<\/a>,<\/p>\n (239) 848-8208 and fax (239) 369-9545.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A\u00a0musician, pastor, harp builder, and more, Steve Barnett\u00a0shared with the Lehigh Acres Gazette\u00a0about his latest harp project.
