Joe, Joe, Joe. It's all about the DNA pal.

If  you wanted to have little Cash's, Dylan's, Lennon's of your own
there's  always that DNA all throughout the harp. Don't laugh, the day is
coming  when some whack job will do it. 

Imagine the surprised parents when it  turns out the harp wasn't owned by
one of them but some evil mutant  harmonica player. Whoops, too late.

But seriously, I agree with you  100%. Same thing for the folks that pay
ridiculous amounts of money for  autographs. I just don't get it.

Bill

I  don't understand how a harmonica played by Cash, Dylan, Lennon,   
(being used), would be worth more than 12 dollars. I mean, what are   
we talking about here? We're talking about used harps. And, no one   
can even prove they belonged to these people anyway. And even if  they  
did, so what.

hey ...wait a minute. i thought GAS stood for  'guitar acquisition  
syndrome'....ergo HAS would be 'harmonica  acquisition syndrome'..congas  
CAS...and so on.

...now you guys  have me completely befuddled by using it for melody makers  
and amps!  (though that last one would make an interestingly  pronounced  
acronym)  ;)

Elizabeth

P.S. $90,000!  Holy  $***!!  That's beyond sanity, as is even $640  for a 
used 
(by  anyone) diatonic...let alone $12 grand.

I have a guitar looks just like  that one gathering dust in my music room,  
Scott.  Only it  doesn't say 'fender'. However, in every other detail  
(shape, 
colour,  style), it's identical.  It was given to me at the end of  the 60's  
by a 
TV Producer I knew who realized I was a poor kid, and  who had  just gotten a 
brand new one for his wife's birthday.  He gave  me  both of her old electric 
guitars.  I never owned an amp nor  had any  clue about playing them, so 
they've 
sat unused all these  years. Gave one away  last year on Freecycle to a 
mother 
whose kid  was taking up guitar, and still  have one left.  Hey, that proves  
the provenance, doesn't it?  Of  course he was fairly old then  so I'm sure 
they're both long gone but at least  one of their two  sons was still making 
commercials in New York, last I'd  heard.  Somehow, though... I doubt it'll 
make me 
rich ;)

Um, there is a place where lust  originally comes from  that is even more fun 
than  gear.

Harmonica content: some harmonica  players would rather go  to that place 
than 
mess with gear.

That's EXACTLY what I'm talking about. There's this thing in  my  
religion about not wearing someone else's hat. What you risk  is  
mixing their brain waves with yours. This also extends to shoes.  What  
you would be doing is walking in someone else's footsteps. As  for  
harmonicas, you're breathing someone else's  breath.

Naaaah, count me out. I can't think of 3 people I would less  rather  
mix with than these three.

It's hero  worship. I never was into that. I don't understand why  
people can't  be themselves. But some people like to live in an alter-  
world.

Any suggestions for local bands to see in LA or Cleveland?   Here's your

Provenance is everything when buying  memorabilia. Even if one is inclined to
trust the seller, the item has  little value without at least a chain of
custody. So, if this is your  thing, try to put excitement aside and spend no
money without some form of  proof.

While I do not personally subscribe to the cult of personality,  I do
understand it. Both as an offshoot of the very human need to belong  and, for
some, a connection to an existence perceived to be better than  their own.

Dear all,

I'd like to ask about OBs. I think I popped my  first OB by using
unmodified SP20 C harmonica on hole 5. BUT, When I  checked it with
bendometer, it said that I popped Eb instead of F#? Does  anybody know
what's happening?  I also tried on unmodified GM C  Harmonica, and
still got the same  thing.
