Couple more things Jason's put up.... A Burning Sessions CD, he made three years ago, only 400 copies printed, autographed. I was hesitant to post a link to it, cause i'm bidding on it.

Jason finally brought himself to part with three of his harps, he's been fretting about it for weeks, finally squeezed the trigger and put 'em on Ebay. I've played 'em. They rule. They overblow EASY and I suck at overblowing.

All this is hand work. They all have rounded corners, half-moon ends, Jason sat around for hours with a piece of sandpaper doing this.  

This is the best of the three. I was really surprised Jason was selling this one, cause it's probably his best yet. When I checked it out, I thought it was postwar cause it has a postwar front, but then flipped it around and saw the prewar back cover. The harp itself is prewar, he replaced the front cover cause it was damaged somehow. If you're gonna bid on one, it oughtta be this one. It is unbelieveable. This one is tuned about how i like them, totally Just with the 5 draw raised slightly, so you still get that nice I chord and IV chord, but the 5 draw isn't so flat.

Jason talks about this Hohner International all the time, he's pretty fond of it. He came up with a pretty cool idea for coverplate supports, he used screws with a female Seydel coverplate bolt on the other side for the support. It was made in Brazil... from the years when Hohner owned Hering. FIrst custom International I ever heard of.

This one is cool, it has a camel-back thing going on in the back. I'm totally gonna get me an old handmade blues harp and rip that idea.
