Re: XB bending vs Overblowing

["Fernando Bresslau" <bresslau@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not really, unless you retune the aux reeds of the reeds you want to OB and
set the main reeds accordingly. Maybe worth a try, but I think the need to
OB is where you can´t get the notes without it. So, on the XB, if you have
all the notes and the harp is designed to be bent, why change it? Unless you
are so accostumed to OB that it is easier to use them strange things than
bend the XB correctly to pitch.
Best regards,
