Re: [Harp-L] Dannekers harps price

[MundHarp@xxxxxxx]

I have... Perhaps.. a DOZEN... Antony Dannecker "Dannecker Blues" 
Diatonics.  I think they are  great harmonicas... Probably as good as the best 
diatonic harps ever built...But  Tony has been fixing most of my harps for more 
than 20  years...
Why?
Because I have not found any better  harp tec.... ANYWHERE!
Of course there are (and  were) others... the late Bill Romel was great at 
fixing chromatics, and the  late Chris Michaelek was good at setting up 
short harps for over  blows.
However, Michael Timler knows more  about setting up a harmonica than most 
any one, and he fixed up my ILUS "Renny"  #8, to play better than it has 
EVER played  before....
Of course we all miss the  late, great, Doug Tate...

I looked it up.  95 something for them.  Was it  English Pounds?  (I'm not
sure of the symbol used.)  If it is,  that makes them $153 +or- a buck or 
so.

Sounds in line for a top line  harp from any of the makers.

Especially, if you can get them in a month  or so.    ;-)
