Jimi Hendrix started strumming on a broom. So much doom and gloom about
cheapo harps. Sometimes I just have to shake my head. Maybe some were born
with a silver harp in their mouth. I wonder how many great players started
on a cheapo. The operative word STARTED. I would rather give a kid a
BluesBand instead of a lecture on saving his/her pennys for a "real harp"
, I used to sell 5.00 harps at a flea market. Many times a kid would pick
one up and the first words out of the parents mouth was NO. I don't want to
hear that racket. As they walked away I would say; Smoking crack is quiet
maybe that would be better.
