Re: [Harp-L] RE: Rank Amateur Question - Do I have a couple of bad harps?

[Winslow Yerxa <winslowyerxa@xxxxxxxxx>]

In what way are the notes not right? A little more detail would be very helpful in making a diagnosis.

Do you have those keys of harp among the Special 20s and Suzukis you now own? if not, it might be a problem related to your mouth resonance or breathing that only shows up in those keys. If you do own those keys in other models and they work fine, then it suggests a problem with the individual harps, and then it could be a matter of reed adjustment or airtightness.

Symptoms, please.

I 
have 
two 
harps 
that 
I 
just 
cannot 
get 
the 
two 
and 
three 
and 
draw 
right 
on,
an 
"A" 
Hohner 
Big 
River  
and 
a 
"G" 
Hohner 
Blues 
Harp.  
Love 
the 
comb 
size 
on
the 
Big 
River 
and 
the 
mellow 
tone 
of 
the 
Blues 
Harp.  
I 
have 
no 
problem 
on
these 
notes 
with 
my 
Special 
20's 
or 
my 
Suzuki's.  
Is 
it 
me 
or 
the 
harps?  
Or
is 
there 
even 
any 
way 
to 
tell 
from 
the 
information 
I've 
given?
