ODs are tougher that OBs.  If you're serious, I strongly recommend 
using a custom harp built by someone who knows how to set up for them, 
at least until you learn how to produce them reliably  In my 
experience, a Filisko Method harp is the gold standard, but I have not 
tried many harps by other makers.  I have no quibble with MP's 
description of the technique involved, other than to add that with a 
stock harp, it's more like trying to start a Harley by sucking on the 
exhaust pipe.
