Re: [Harp-L] Koch Chromatic

[Music Cal <macaroni9999@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have 4 Hohner Slide Harps (very similar to the Koch) with clear acrylic
combs. All are augmented-tuned and fully valved. I also have an
augmented-tuned CX12 and Seydel Deluxe. I prefer my Slide Harps and rarely
play the CX12 or Deluxe. The Slide Harps were constructed by Michael Timler
at the former HarpOnLine. They are great harps and I thinking Hohner would
be crazy not to start offering these 10 hole beauties.

They are really nice! Are you listening Hohner!?
