Hello Kinya,

 

In one of your videos you said that it is good to spray some alcohol on the harp after playing it.

Is it ok to spray in a wood comb or in a bamboo comb?

 

Thank you!

Hi Rafa, good to hear from

Hi Rafa, good to hear from you.

I have been using Roche-Thomas "Mi-T-Mist" (70% Proponal) for years--on all comb materials. Knock on wood, I have yet to damage a comb, and/or catch a cold after playing a customers's or student's harmonica ;o)

Your Harpsmith, Kinya

... sorry LL, I was too busy

... sorry LL, I was too busy enjoying my double Grey Goose martini--shakened, not stirred with two olives.
