[Harp-L] Beginnner rack recommendations

Thank you for filling in the details!

Your description of the rack and the particulars of using it with a 
diatonic harp are quite helpful to me. I think that, as a beginner who 
plays only the diatonic harp, I might find this rack to be more than I 
need. But I'll certainly keep it in mind down the line.

And thanks also for this. I didn't see the racks listed on his website, 
<http://www.harmonicarepair.com/Fathead_Musical_Instruments/Home.html>, 
which Gary Lehmann provided in an earlier message.

Again, thanks for your detailed reply about this rack.
