Re: [Harp-L] Harp Store Recommendation

Brothers & Sisters of the Tin Sandwich,

    About ten years ago I had occasion to use lavalier microphones for a 
high school production of Romeo & Juliet. The local music store had some 
excellent prices "off the rack". (And they have plenty of racks!) My car 
radio went out and instead of getting it fixed or replaced I returned to the 
music store and bought a harmonica to wile away the time to/from work 
learning to re-appreciate music. (Arthritis has squelched any possible [?] 
return to stringed instruments which were a personal first love.)

    They have come to carry a wider selection of harps. And they sell a 
L-O-T of harps!

    In short order I could blow, draw, bend, play scales and chord. And 
then I found web sites...

    Now my "kit" space has a variety of brands and I have several cases of 
diatonics and chromatics. And boxes. And shelves...Well, you know, eh?

    Support whomever you are going to support. Stop in once in a while and 
extend your attitude to others whom may have a need to twang, plunk, clack, 
clatter or blow.

Amen,

Be Blues...And Jazz,

Suave Blues Man


    That local music shop gives a substantial discount
