Re: Chromatic for Irish-- there can be only one! (For me at least)

Nice for a beginning. And if you put in some of the slider decorations or other ones, you can easily extend it to two turns more, and you will have a nice little tune.

Re: LUCKY 13 NEWS

This one is good for 14 of them. If you want, you can place 4 Hohner Marinebands or Lee Oskars or Suzukis on the outer sides in addition. And it is not too expensive either: https://www.seydel1847.de/Seydel-Softcase-fuer-14-Harps https://www.seydel1847.de/epages/Seydel1847.sf/seccd5953e26b/?ViewObje...

Re: AsiaBend availability

It is quite more expensive than the former one from Easttop. But the CX-12 as a base is a very reliable Instrument. It is very easy to maintain (opened and closed within 2 minutes without any tool). It has a fairly smoothly operating slide. And what is its greatest benefit compared to Easttop: Singl...

Re: Trochilus Overblow Booster

Triona the Seydel magic button harp looks cool! In my dreams I’d have a “jazzy” button that would bring back the missing chromatic notes. In case of you did not already find it yourself, here is some more to read about the Seydel All Minor: https://www.brendan-power.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=357 gr...

Re: Trochilus Overblow Booster

blu-tac! (I actually use a different brand.) I use a different brand either. It is white instead of blue. It is a warehouse brand called "Sticky tack". And the English description on its label is "adhesive gum" . And for harder loadings like i.e. retuning of jaw harps to a lower...

Re: Trochilus Overblow Booster

However I'm not sure it would be easy to access with a finger in that midway position on the coverplate. Why not? I do not expect an issue like that.

Re: Trochilus Overblow Booster

As far as adding a part to the harp goes, a spring-loaded button fitted through the coverplate above the slide-out blow reed with a pad on the bottom would do the job. Just press the button to stop the blow reed and get the overblow. Exactly this is what I spontanously was thinking about too. But I...
