From level 6 on this song along with a vendor lute will contribute more to a group than arguably anything else, especially in classic when everyone has shit gear. As soon as you can train strings this will have a base regen of 2 per tick (4 with lute) and gains 1hp per tick (2 with lute) every 5 levels.
6: 4hp per tick
11: 6hp per tick
16: 8hp per tick
21: 10hp per tick
26: 12hp per tick
31: 14 hp per tick
36: 16 hp per tick
40: 18hp per tick
45: 20hp per tick
50: 22hp per tick
That’s a lot of healing with a 1pp vendor lute.
In the classic era where everyone has crap gear, casters have low mana pools, and downtime will be a thing ... a bard prioritizing using an instrument is a powerful force multiplier that will keep the stress/heat off your healers.

At 47 bards get this (also strings) which stacks with hymn.
47 with stack: 32hp/tick
50 with stack: 36hp/tick
By the time you have a weapon worth using, you’ll be high enough level that your dps will suck. If you’re willing to instrument swap then by all means do it like a boss and be a boss. If you’re unwilling to swap, you’d be best off with your weapons in your bags 99% of the time in a group situation unless nobody is taking damage or your healer is bored and full mana (highly unlikely without twink gear and high level buffs).

Fire up heal song, pulse mana song 5 times, resing heal song, repeat. Goodbye, downtime.
