Not sure what this question means...
A harp does not have keys like a keyboard; the strings are plucked with the fingers.
If you mean, "How many musical keys can you play on a harp", there are three answers:
- A pedal harp can play in all twelve keys.
- A lever harp with a full set of levers can play in eight keys without retuning.
- A harp with no levers can only play in one key without retuning.

What instruments has pedals strings and keys?
the piano or a pedal harp or concert harp
What has eight strings?
I am not aware of any instrument having 88 strings. Pianos generally have 88 keys but there are more than one string for each key. The orignal answers below talk about the number of keys as well as the number of strings on a harp, but no harp has 88 strings. ======================================================= Piano (para 1). Harpsichord (para 2). Harp (para3). Organ (para 4) The keys are connected to the hammers which in turn hit the strings. Open a piano and have a look! Some Pianos do not have 88 keys. They normally range from 86 - 88 keys. Also Harpsichords sometimes have 88 keys but They generally have 4 to 6 octaves so, around 48-72. Harpsichords with double manuals, have the double of keys, so 96-144. Harps also sometimes have 88 keys but it varies with each harp. Non-pedal harps can have anywhere from 20 to 40 strings. Usually harps that have 20 to about 30 strings are referred to as lap harps. A good size lap harp has about 22 to 24 strings. A standard folk harp has 36 strings, thought the more commonly preferred size is 34 strings. Pedal harps can have anywhere from 40 to 48 strings. The Triple Strung harp or Welsh harp has 88 strings the same amount of strings as keys on a piano, but these are exceedingly rare, so I wouldn't worry about this one. Organs vary the most. Some Organs have one Keyboard, others have 2, 3, 4 and sometimes 5! The present main console is normally four manuals of 61 keys each, so the total is 244 manual keys. And there are 32 pedal keys.

how many strings and pedals are on harp?
A standard pedal harp typically has 47 strings. These strings are manipulated using pedals to change their pitch, allowing the harpist to play a wide range of musical notes and keys. Watch this video to answer all of your questions Just put youtube.c0m /shorts/tjFDicSVBd4?si=pVNL_UxjxRXOD9yp
Why is there a pedal on a harp?
I believe that the pedal is there for accidentals (sharps and flats). I believe that the strings on a harp are just the "regular" notes, like the white keys on a piano, and if you want sharps or flats you've got to pedal to get it.
