[Harp-L] Re: Seydel Hochlandsklaenge

[Colin Fulton <justcolin@xxxxxxxxx>]

So what I am not getting is this: WHen you blow into one hole does it
have 2 reeds in it tuned a bit appart for a tremelo, 2 reeds one
octave appart for an octave sound, two reeds tuned an octave appart
with one off so it's a weird octave tremelo mix, or 4 reeds with 2
sets of octave appart reeds and one in each set tuned a bit off for
tremelo?
