Description

A neat jaw harp with even, but not the smallest gaps, which leads to a noticeable enrichment of the timbre with a rough grip with compression of the dec. The long and relatively soft reed produces a long, medium-low-range sound and is convenient for strong strokes on itself. At the smallest volume, a weak metal background is noticeable, with an increase in amplitude drowned out by the main sound.
