Description

Large, massive jews harp with an interesting design and a characteristic feature of the master's instruments - the sound has clearly recognizable tone and long time, considerably longer than the average for this frequency. Although its overtone spreading is not perfect and the voice can not be called crystal-clear, the overall impression of the jew's harp - singing and melodious. Treble frequencies are little quiter than expected and the tongue gives low-frequency trembling with backward strokes. In general, poor Yorick behaves adequately to its appearance and may become worthy addition to any collection or "Just a Jews Harp." It is perfect for strong strokes, intensive playing.
