 @helpterskelpter:matrix.org | I’ve not picked up a harmonica in half a year :/.
But, decided to get a better one than the fender piece of amazon junk
Got this suzuki mr-350 (for a great deal), and immediately i can do everything but still draw on the two :| | 21:20:10 |
| @helpterskelpter:matrix.org | Anyways practice makes perfect, will keep up with it :D | 21:20:28 |
| @helpterskelpter:matrix.org | Also I’m just curious.... what’s the good part of a harmonica?
If you pay 1k for a harmonica, what gives it that price? The comb seems to be, just a comb. The top and bottom plates don’t seem like they’re special. Is it really just the reed plate? | 21:48:00 |
| @lorendb:matrix.org | Well, you shouldn't pay $1000 for a harmonica. I'd say the $80 Marine Band Crossover is one of the best out there. The Crossover has a reed plate that is fine tuned at the factory for advanced playing. It also has a bamboo comb, which is likely more expensive than plastic. I'd say it comes down to the quality of the assembly primarily. | 22:34:27 |
| @lorendb:matrix.org | Research Harrison Harmonicas if you want to read about an attempt to make a really high quality harp. | 22:38:10 |
| @helpterskelpter:matrix.org | :D thanks!!
Yeah I definitely wouldn’t pay anywhere near that amount. But, I did see 1k+ harmonicas online, so apparently a market exists :p | 23:10:41 |
| @helpterskelpter:matrix.org | I’ll stick with this suzuki for now, but this isn’t the first time I’ve heard someone recommend the marine band crossover.. that will likely be my next one :D | 23:11:30 |
