A sidenote too Fugz, the LO's A harp is designed to be a little fatter on the plate covers than their other key'd harps. I thought this was a mistake until I bought other key'd LO's. The A has fatter plate covers than say the Bb or C. I suppose because its such a deep and low toned harp, characteristic of that 'fat' hornlike sound. LO's have a remarkable long life. I bought my A 6 months ago, still play through the same one.
: I have a 20 in c and a Oskar in a. I want to order a few more keys but I don't know which to get. The 20 fits my mouth better, but from what I hear the Oskar is the way to go. I am an "advanced beginner" and still have a hard time bending notes. Can anyone help?
: Thanks
