[Harp-L] (no subject)

["samblancato" <samblancato@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I would strongly recommend the low keys (below Bb) as the high end of the
keys of C and above are very difficult to play.

See Rick's explanation (originally posted on harp-l):

Mine is in G and I'm very happy with it.

Hope this helps

I have a XB-40 in C and one of the reasons I have not enjoyed playing this
harp too much is that I can't play trills on it (shakes or warbles). When I
to a two hole shakes in  Draw 3:4 or Draw 4:5 they choke out like the holes
just bend way too easily.  I am wondering if this is the case with an A
harp. Based on this I'd also say get the low keys.

Do the kays choke out on lower keys than C too?
