Subject: [Harp-L] Overblows "out of the box"


Hi everybody,



I've got a question which would seemingly not be very politically correct,
but I am very much interested by the answer .

I've heard about new harps which are supposed to be tuned for overblows "out
of the box".

I have to say I don't really understand what it means.

I don't know any machine able to play overblows and overdraws (not speaking
about multi overblows and multi overdraws .), and I don't see how you can
tune and adjust a harmonica for overnotes without playing those.

I can't neither imagine how many people playing overblows would be needed to
tune harmonicas for a large market.

So my question is: does anyone know what "overblows out of the box" means
exactly? How is it done - manually? Any feedback from harp players used to
play overblows?



Best regards,



Jerome
