dear Mr Pollard

I would like to know if its possible to replace a broken reed on my suzuki manji by a suzuki bluesmaster reed if I prepare correctly the manji hole or the dimension of the reed is not the same ?

I see a little video on youtube about that with Brandon Power and I want to confirm with you before I start this operation.

Thank you

Hello Mr. B -- good to hear

Hello Mr. B -- good to hear from you.

Hmm, Suzuki Harpmaster reed as a donor for the Manji ... I have never done this combination, but in principal if the reed aligns perfectly with the slot--it will work. Give it a shot!

Your Harpsmith, Kinya
