Description

A large jews harp on a thick frame with a hard, heavy tongue. The accuracy of its tuning leaves much to be desired and does not provide a musical purity of the timbre, but lovers of drive, strikes from the bottom of the heart and deaf sound may like such an impressive-looking device. Nuances and accuracy can not be found in it though.
