[Harp-L] All of this Comb talk...



This has been quite a thread/discussion about combs. Personally it has been
a little sad and depressing. I haven't owned or used a comb for many years.
I feel so left out. 

 

Harp content: In the spirit of trying to get involved I pulled an old 'rug"
out of my underwear drawer. I glued it in place and then proceeded to comb
it out with a Special 20 comb. Then I tried a Marine Band comb. I must say
the synthetic fibers of my "piece" so much more enjoyed the slide and glide
of the plastic Special 20 comb. The Marine Band had too much "drag" and
actually left a few splinters in my noggin'. Obviously comb material does
matter in terms of sound. You shoulda heard me scream as those splinters
pierced my sensitive skull. I guess my conclusion is that wooden combs are
much louder!
