Description

Morchang Gorharama with a hard reed and the highest sound. Large gaps limit the spectrum from above and reduce volume, but the remaining frequency range is very easy to control. Smooth, dim timbre allows you to hear individual overtones better, without being distracted by the colorfulness of your own jaw harp sound.

Very modest in sound, jaw harp, in combination with the high stiffness of the reed, is quite a difficult instrument to use.
