RE: [Harp-L] Cellophane sealing

["Patrick Powers" <patpowers@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Cupping your hands tightly around the harp mic does the same thing, and
-- YES -- it makes bending a lot easier.  Especially the real low draw
bends and high overblows.  Cupping's not just for Wah-Wah-ing any more
now, is it???

Subject: [Harp-L] Cellophane sealing


During a recent ultrasonic cleaning and customizing session I was
considering 
air flow in harmonicas.  I temporarily sealed the whole back of a
Special 20 
with cellophane tape and began comparing its playability with an
unsealed model. 
 Of course many features of playing were lost but it seemed to me I
could 
overblow and draw just a little easier with the sealed harp.  Has anyone
used 
this set up in special playing situations?  

Curiously,

Lockjaw Larry
