Anyone know where I can purchase a portable music stand to mount in my work van? I spend a lot of time in my van waiting on dispatch etc... and would like a music stand to put all my paper music on, notation documents, etc.

Thanks..

I just watched the photo montage that David did on building the 1x10 cabinet.  I love the style and that he got it done using scraps he had on hand.  Thanks for sharing that, I really enjoyed it.

That caught my interest on a couple of levels.  I'm just starting to learn blues harp, I have wanted to learn for a long time.  Just took a global pandemic to get me moving I guess.  (Side note: tongue blocking...really looking forward to being over the hump on that.  O.M.G.) continue reading...

Is tongue block easier on protruding reed (ie. special 20s) or recessed reed (ie. crossover) harps?  

By protruding reed, I'm talking about how the special 20 reed extends in front of the cover plate.  On the recess reed on the crossover, the cover plate is a tiny amound in front of the reed.   

I'm a developing player using mostly pucker.  I see the value in tongue block and would like to try ransition to that for the bulk of my playing. continue reading...

Who is interested to buy a never used working Akai U40 Riff O Matic phrase sampler? I bought two a few years back but my unit still works up to now.

I have played special 20s.  I'd love to hear your comparisons of the Crossover, Rocket AMP amd Special 20 in playability, bendability, tone, fit for blues, durability, ease of maintainance or any other thoughts or comparisons you have?

Hi,

I have a Hohner Bluesblaster mic that one day just died on me. No I did not drop it. I brought it to an electronic shop and was told the element was dead. What is a good replacement element and where is it available?

Thank you.

Hi,

I have white acrylic combs on my Seydel Silvers but have noticed it discolored to yellowish. Yes, I do clean my harps and even soak them in water since they have stainless steel reeds. I tongue block so I'm thinking it might be my saliva? What seems to be the cause and what is the remedy besides changing the combs. At this point in time I don't think it is wise for me to buy extra combs.

Thank you.

Hello everybody. I have downloaded the Blue Dadi Software but I have some problems.

I can't play over a jam track that I select, when I try, the jam track always stop after a couple of seconds.

The track that is already in the program works, the others not.

I can not even register over the track by the same problem.

Can someone help me please?

Where is my mistake?

Thank you.
