S0...can anyone duplicate (even approximately)  Chris' vibrato? I can't get
anywhere near it.I bought one of his custom harps,and while it
overblowed/drawed etc., I hated playing it, even if I only played scaler
stuff, no chording.
It was like Chris 'processed' each note in a way that was beyond me.
