Description

jaw harps of the master, made in small quantities, are so different from each other that it is pointless to give a general description to them and we recommend choosing them only by personally playing on each copy. Common features are a great stiffness of the reed (150-200) and a certain property of character, well suited to appearance. The fundamental absence of the final stage of processing, gloss guidance, focuses on the sound and reinforces the feeling of wild, unbridled power of the instrument.
