Hey all.
I bought a hohner crossover in the key of A and thought you'd like to know
about it. I haven't played it for long. Short review: it's a nice review.
Here's some things that stand out:
A: it sounds different than the Lee Oskar. The Lee Oskar sounds like a
gibson jazz guitar and the hohner sounds more like a fender.
B: I can get an overblow on the 6 hole easily. I never have done
that before and don't know what to do with it, but there you have it.
C: the back of the harp looks cool. It's open real wide.
D: I have a harder time getting an octave on the hohner and it sounds
different than the lee oskar.
E: it's easier to bend notes on the hohner, and easier to get a vibrato.
The crossover costs $30.00 more than a lee oskar. I don't what the
longevity will be. The lee oskars last forever. I might get two more, one
in C and one in D.
