" Harpolyre: Patented by Jean Francois Salomon in 1829 (and built by Andre Augustin Chevrier, according to the BMFA), this is a very interesting instrument, and a difficult one to classify. Since it is fully fretted, it cannot technically qualify as a "true" harp guitar by any definition. Yet it was clearly designed to be played very much like an intricate harp guitar. ... Nor is it a "triple-neck" guitar, nor a type of lyre guitar. ... "
