Gear

I love marine bands but I hate their combs.
Do you know any seller of composite- bamboo- rosewood- ebony combs for the 364 or 365 models?

Thanks in advance.

I just put a great kalamazoo model 2 amp up for sell on ebay i hope dave dont mind me posting this but thought since its for gear somebody may be looking for one i priced it to sell at only 250 so go take a look

I have one of these harmonica holders: http://www.amazon.com/Hohner-HH154-Harmonica-Holder/dp/B0002D00FK

And the harmonica keeps slipping forward. The metal prongs that wrap around the back are pretty loose. Is that normal? Am I pushing to hard against it?

I usually play special 20s, but I often have to toss them. I got a set semi-customized and many are much better. I got one fully customized. But the best of all is the Crossover. Easy to bend, and none of the holes are thin or airy. I'm expecting a couple more customized. I'll see how they compare. The Crossover's an A. I want to play everything in E now. Check 'em out.

Does anyone on the site use his harmonicas? Has anyone tried a B-Radical yet?

Does anyone have any information about pro studio music recording ap for the Iphone. In the Itunes ap store the description reads as if you can import a track from the library and record yourself . It is a paid ap I think the cost is $10. I'm sure the ap doesn't have all the functionality of Garage Band but could still be useful. The recordings are in AAC mp4 format, and can be emailed from the ap. continue reading...

Just had a look at the newest Hohner harmonica catalog. In it I noticed a lot of changes. Notable ones include updates to the original Marine Band, Marine Band Deluxe, the low Crossovers are now called "Tunderbird" (thanks to Joe Filisko and Little Walter), and changes to the Special 20. I have a couple of concerns, both good and bad, for all of these changes. continue reading...

I've started getting into the harp tech studies and I've been looking for an accurate tuner to experiment with just intonation. I've tried a cheap digital tuner and also the free downloadable "AP tuner" but I can't seem to get the accuracy I want with either. continue reading...

DJL Vintage Audio (home of MegaTone Amps) has been restoring and putting great harp mods into old P.A. amps for many years but has not really promoted this service until now. If you would like to have that big fat 50's sound but can't afford a new boutique amp, then you might be interested in our service. continue reading...

I just received my custom Seydel harmonica from Jon Harl. After playing this harp the first word that comes to mind is PERFECTION!!!This harp is extremely air tight, responsive and the tonal quality is outstanding. Stock Seydels are nice harps but this is truly a professional quality harp now. Dealing with Jon was a pleasure he listened to what I was looking for in a harp and delivered exactly what he said he would and so much more. I can say with all certainty that some day I will have a case full of custom Seydels by Jon Harl.
