Re: [Harp-L] cx-12 maintenance



Sorry Niko, 'build up of gunk' means your valves getting clogged up with all the horrible nasty stuff that can come out of your mouth, especially if you do bad things like smoke or forget to rinse your mouth out.  

Like Gary said this is something that plagues all of us, perhaps some of the more seasoned players could provide us with a guide to valve maintenance best practice.

  hello there ! 

  First thing to ask is what does 

"build up of gunk" mean ?i m pretty sure about valves because whenever i cannot play a note i open the harmonica to find out that the specific note's valve is notclosing correctly . i aslo cannot relly understand how to straight the valve although i ve read three times instructions in this link .http://www.angelfire.com/music/harmonica/ricksvalvetool.htmlthis thing anoys me all the time . Even if i find the way to fix it i have to find a way so as not to be bothered every two or three days .
