Re: [Harp-L] RE: Rank Amateur Question - Do I have a couple of bad harps?

Your Special 20 and Suzukis are both better instruments. Hohner MS harps are leaky, especally the blues harp. Could be the gaps on the reeds are too open. It could be your Suzukis and 20s are higher keys, I don't know. When you follow up, give us an idea what's happening when you play those holes.

I have two harps that I just cannot get the two and three and draw right on,
an "A" Hohner Big River  and a "G" Hohner Blues Harp.  Love the comb size on
the Big River and the mellow tone of the Blues Harp.  I have no problem on
these notes with my Special 20's or my Suzuki's.  Is it me or the harps?  Or
is there even any way to tell from the information I've given?
