Re: [Harp-L] Seydel Irish Chrom

[Dirk Buchbinder <JollyBeggarman@xxxxxxx>]

Hello Alex,
maybe you know Franz Chmel? He is a great austrian classic chromatic 
player. He tested chromatics of severral brands including the seydel 
chrom deluxe, and published the result on his homepage.

I have some Irish Seydel Chroms myself and like them very much. The 
distamce from one hole to the next is a little bit different compared 
with Hohner and Hering, but I have no problem with switching from one 
brand to the other. The sound is a little brighter, perfekt for irish 
tunes ( my very personal opinion ).
Seydel also offers a very good customers service, send them the layout 
you want and they make it if it is possible. They also offer single 
reeds and a tool kit for changing these.
The Slidemeister group has some comments concerning the Seydel chroms.
Regards,
Dirk
