: i have bluesmasters in "a" and "d", i bought them about half a year ago and none of them has gone flat.....
: i think they are good harps, better if you get them for a very good prize, and its hard for you to find hohners. The sound seems to be a bit brighter and they have less "power" than the golden melody or the special 20,
: the ones i bought came playing very well without any tweaks, they are airtight and it seems they dont need any adjustement to overblow the lower holes.
:
: for begginers, this harp seems to be a bit harder to bend, but its something you can deal with only having a bit of practice
: ..i think ill keep them... the durability, accesibility and cost (for me), make me forget about the better sound that hohners have...
: (note that i have had little problems with flat reeds, so durability for me is not very much a problem)
Hey RPG...
Thanks for the feedback. I was afraid that my post was overlooked during the holidays.
Hope that you, along with everyone who reads this, had a blessed merry Christmas and are already enjoying a prosperous happy New Year.
Wishing you success in your pursuits,
Patrick
