RE: [Harp-L]MS/handmade {was MB Deluxe?}

["Alexei" <lexas@xxxxxx>]

Hello Fernando!
Sorry if I missed your previous postings. Can you tell what EXACTLY means
"handmade" now? 
I switched to MS series last year, as I began to play publicly more and feel
the sound of Special20 too weak/soft compared to PtoHarp/bluesHarp(imho,
still sp20 is best for home practice, IMHO!!) However, I found MS to be
prone to torsion vibration especially in high register and bends. Is Hohner
going something to do with this issue?

And you should also give a try at the MS
harmonicas again. I have already said that here, but they are now literally
"hand made" instruments, like the MBs, the GM and the SP20. The automatic
machine has been through its life expectancy, and proved not to be what
players wanted. So it has been deactivated and the plates are assembled in
the old proven way (rivetted, gapped, tuned). We only assemble the plates,
bodies and coverplates automatically, which continues to make sense.
 All the best,
Fernando
