MY question would be: given the prediliction for harmonicas to follow a habit of no two ever being the same (even from same batch/lot/series/model/style/manufacturer), wouldn't it follow that not only would the harmonicas from Jimmy, Ritchie, & Joey be different, BUT, there's a very good chance that even the harmonicas from ONE of them would differ. It is THIS premise that leads me (a reasonable prudent person), to surmise that unless a person has checked every harp from every customizer AND every harp from every Joe Schmoe (sitting in a corner of Idaho), a difinitive answer to the nagging question "What the hell is the real deal with harps", simply cannot be.
