@KeefDeBluesHarpRobot mentioned his Lucky 13’s and I know @Slim has bought AT LEAST one of these. I bought one key of F - I was so excited about it, but when I got it, the bottom 2 holes sound/feel different than the rest. Best way to describe it is it’s got a “paper” kinda vibe to it, as if I’m playing a Chromatic with wind savers.
Anyone else had this problem? I believe mine was made by Konsheng.
I thought they were made by East Top. Also thought they had 3 low holes, hence the name “Lucky 13”. They do have numerous varieties. It’s harder to hit a clean single note on the 3 low holes and I wondered how they would “relate” to the other 10 but I pretty much go back and forth between the two without difficulty. I have a YouTube video where I do this and maybe someone would be kind enough to post it here, it is: “Lucky 13 Bass Blues Harmonica (Quick Demo)”, look for the thumbnail above.
Yep! Got one going to buy more, although I got the covers off and played with the internals a bit, put a dampener around the rattle in the middle it now sounds great
And the reeds at the top end of the harp needed gaping to get them to respond now all good. The bass reeds have a valving system when you play un-mic-ed there’s a slight rattle but amplified no one notices it
