Joel,
That's great work - it sounds very well. Are you playing out in sessions in
your local area or do they exist there?
Also, your octave harp intrigues me. I saw one recently that Mick Kinsella
had - it may have been a 12 hole or 10 hole with Solo tuning. I guess you
had to cut down the reedplates from the 64 chrom, with one reedplate tuned
to that Epping scheme at G3 (G below middle C), and the other reedplate
tuned an octave higher starting on G4, then put the smaller chrom mouthpiece
directly on the comb without the slide mechanism. Can you tell us more
about it?
Thanks and keep up the great work!
Eugene
