Description

The jews harp with a maximum crackling, loud sound, very uneven distribution of overtones and a failure at the very top. Almost completely there is no jitter of the tongue and sound associated with it, but for a quick strokes it is not convenient - when you hit outwards, the finger catches the tongue or too much, or slips in idle. Very peculiar jews model. Good for punching through noise with strong, monotonously rhythmic beats.
