Description

A rather loud jaw harp with a simple sound, whose frequency range is limited to the middle area. On the one hand, this does not prevent you from playing what is - the colorfulness does not drown out overtones; on the other hand, someone may not have enough extreme frequencies. Touching the finger generates a very strong rustle, also emphasized by a restrained timbre. When you hit back, you add a "pump." In general, the character of the jaw harp is smooth, calm and very obedient - in his field he is much more careful than "crying" brothers.
