[Harp-L] Hohner MS harps

["Rick & Dana Siekmann" <dsiekmann@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just curious, does anyone use these professionally (or semi-professionally) as their main gigging harps?  I've got a couple of Pro Harps and one Big River, the rest of my (small) ensemble consists of Special 20s and Marine Bands.  The reason I ask is that I find the MS harps to be stiffer and less responsive than the others, and I was wondering if it was just me or if that's something inherent in the MS reed plates.
