Re: [Harp-L] Seydel & Reed Failure

[MundHarp@xxxxxxx]

All harmonica reeds fail.
Over the years, I have destroyed thousands of harmonicas.
I am not proud of that.
But I am a world class harp player... Part of that is destroying  harps.
By playing with passion
Sadly at  the age of 66... I have pulmonary fibrosis..
That has reduced my POWER
SO I no longer have the breath to blow out harps!
Ok I no longer blow out harmonicas...
Please God give me the power of my lungs back!

There  are some threads on reed failure that have popped up, specifically
with  regard to Seydel diatonic harps.

Below is a link to a posting on my web  site where I discuss  this.

More  importantly, I have had great success with reed polishing and with  
few
exceptions, no Seydel stainless steel reeds that I have replaced have  gone
bad after repair.

Seydel subsidizes repairs I make as a way to  keep you the player satisfied
with the product.

If you personally  believe your harmonica should be repaired under warranty,
please contact me  directly and we can discuss this.
