RE: [Harp-L] Any Steve Baker Special Marine Band Fans?

["Gary Lehmann" <hqr@xxxxxxx>]

Hi harp honkers--
I acquired a pair of SBS units a couple of years ago and had Warren's
reaction (mostly they were Marine Bands, I think--mighty fond of plastic
combs).
I did keep trying to get used to them, tho, and fairly recently starting
asking about having them tuned for use as solo tuned instruments--no
volunteers yet for that task . . .
But then I had a gig, a funeral where they wanted me to play Amazing Grace
solo--I tried a few different units (they wanted diatonic), and the harps
that worked best were the G and D SBS Marine Bands!
I put a sample up on my Gigmaster site--I guess I would like to have y'all
listen (it's both harps at once!)

So bottom line is, I'm not a fan, but I'm not sellin' 'em either!
Gary
PS The G is high--is the A high too?
