Re: [Harp-L] Country tuning name change

This is true for the most part Rick, but if you peruse my 'After the  
Lovin' on you tube, it becomes evident that I use the high end of the  
harp a lot.
Sometimes when doing glissandoes, stairsteps, and waterfalls in the  
upper end it becomes risky to try to hit the 9 overbend spot on. (In  
other words without walking into it).

Remember you're talking 2010. I was using my method in 1959 when I  
didn't have any idea what an overbend WAS. So I did what was possible  
(for me) at the time. I'm no Howard Levy. And Howard may not have  
even been born then. lolol.
