After loving the 17 snare Lyre I decided to get the 31 snare version too. My first Kalyre was bought at a music store and I got this one directly through Hluru. I paid for fast shipping. That turned out to be not so fast(but may be the mail services fault, can’t check that). This model is quite heavy to hold. If that is an issue I can recommend to use a ukelele stand, which it fits perfectly and also gives you a good angle to play(see image). I have taken off one star, because the Kalyre arrived with completely overtuned snares; two snares immediately broke when I touched them. All of the snares were tuned at least 4 notes higher than their assigned notes. Please check this if you buy one too. Only one spare snare is shipped with the product, so I had to us another spare one from my other Lyre. I loosened all snares and then retuned the whole instrument. Now it is perfect and it holds it’s tuning very well and quick, compared to other snare instruments. This design is brillianty done and because of the chromatic tuning it will let you play a broad spectrum of music. So; big recommendation from me, but calculate some extra days for shipping and unpack extra careful, immediately check the tuning and give the snares some slack, if overtuned. Maybe Hluru can offer sets of spare snares or add a few more. I could not find them in your webstore.
