[Harp-L] Fwd: Why are "harp players" seemingly always "decent guitar players", when they do decide to pick a little 6 string? But the majority of "guitar players" are usually "skill-less harp players", when they decide to blow a little 10 holed harp?

He has devised a foot pedal from part of a drum kit to push the slide in.
Apparently he had to retrain his footapping to the beat with his other foot
to enable him to accurately tap the foot pedal with his preferred foot!!
Here is a video which shows a better view.

This is great stuff. Just to play like Tommy on guitar without the harp is
impressive.
