Re: [Harp-L] Where Do You Put Your Case?

How about using velcro fasteners on both the case and the amp? I've had the
same worries at times, but never bumped the harps, fortunately.

Other than that, take "ninja lessons". It'll never happen again.

> I've been playing at jam sessions where protocol demands that you set up
QUICKLY (drag your amp on-stage, plug in and blow!).  Because I never know
what songs we're going to play, or in what keys, I generally load up my
harp-case with my whole collection of Lee Oskars, (major keys, 2 kinds of
minor keys, melody makers) and a cx-12.

Fortunately, it landed on the hinge and snapped shut.  Thinking I had lucked
out, I put it back on the amp, turned around and did it AGAIN!  This time, I
was not so lucky.  Harps flew in all directions.  It took me five minutes
before I could get everything back in the case.  Worse was enduring the
sneers from the guitar players.
