Hello All,

 

I am not sure of this has been discussed before since there is not search option in the forum (or maybe I am not looking for the search option in the right location).

 

Came across many posts in different forums where several people mentioning fire breath and praising it. I also came to know that its discontinued. So thought would ask the amazing people of this forum some questions that I have regarding the same.

 

1. Is suzuki fire breath really that good? If so, why was it discontinued? Is it coz they created something that is better to replace fire breath?

2. I saw a fire breath available for sale in a local shop (key of C), so thought would buy it (as of now I have hammond in the key of A and Manji in the key of G) but the question in my mind is, 'since its discontinued what do existing fire breath users do about getting new reed plates?'.

Manjis are good

The Firebreath was a nice harp but over-hyped. The Manji is probably your best option in the Suzuki line nowadays. If you're really curious about the Firebreath and it's not too expensive, why not get it and compare?
