Description

Morchang Gorharama "soft" series with a medium-length reed and, accordingly, the sound of medium keys. 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, low technical level of manufacture of which in some cases can be turned into an advantage.

All versions of the "Thin" and "Asymmetrical" Gorharam morchangs made of steel and bronze are the same instrument and differ only in the shape and material of the frame; the differences in audio examples, which are random, piece-by-piece sampling, due to the natural spread in sound height and quality.
