special 20 key of B- tough to play
I receintly bought a new Hohner special 20 harp in the key of B. I have difficulty playing this harp. Its harder to perform the bends and harder to play any note- even the blow notes. I have to blow or draw harder to sound the notes. I have no issues with bends or anything on the special 20 in C or Bb or any other key. Is there something different about a B harp that makes it more difficult to play?

Hi Hoffman
You beat me to it. The seven Harp Tech series that David and I filmed are chocked full of tips and proven techniques ;o)

Never mind! Just viewed all of Kinya's videos on gapping. I think the gaps are too wide. I am going to check this out and adjust gaps. Thanks for excellent videos.
