jaw harps from the very south of India, where these instruments are called Morsings, Murchungs and Morchings, are known for their rigid reeds, providing a smooth and iridescent sound when restrained play and precise control when superfast. Morsing frame is very thick, the instrument is heavy and externally made traditionally rough. The stiffness of the reed ranges from simply high (250) to extreme (450) – specifically for the steel hand style. The gaps are quite large - sensitivity is low, without special training to play hard - but on a poor background, overtones are better audible and there are practically no extraneous backlashes. jaw harp for the strong.
