[Harp-L] Suzuki Bluesmasters?

["Bry Thomas" <baddaddy_46@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Any comments one way or other re: Suzuki Bluesmasters (or Folkmasters)?

Locally, the two small music stores have Oskar's for $38, S-20's for $26, MS 
Bluesharps for $28.  Key selection is limited.  They have Old Standby's for 
$11 in a better key selection.   Wal-Mart has Old Standy "C" only for $8 and 
change.

The local stores say "they can order anything" but at those prices...plus 
they don't have a clue when you ask a question.  They are school band, 
guitar, and piano student oriented.  Not blues and harp.  Sure, putting a 
few bucks in the local economic machine would be good but not at those 
prices and not for something I don't really want.

Now to the Suzuki's.  Any comments would be welcome.

A guy at a fest (Bean Blossom) this Sept.  had just purchased a six key set 
w/case for around $100 and was happy as a clam.  Not sure if he still feels 
that way, but...

Sincerely,

Bry Thomas  (Huntingburg, Indiana)
