Neoprene Strips for Grip
I think I've found the perfect grip solution. I tried many things, and have settled on 1mm neoprene foam adhesive strips that can be stuck on the top and bottom covers. They give excellent grip without being bulky , and can be repositioned many times if desired without losing adhesion. They don't ma...

SlipSlider Playing Impressions
Those of you who have a SlipSlider: how is it working out for you, now that you've played it for a while? My feeling after I first got it working was "Wow, if I was a player of the unvalved Richter harmonica, why would I go back to playing a standard harp after experiencing this wonderful extra bend...

Re: The SlipSlider - a Revolutionary Blues Harp.
The Lucky 13 SlipSlider is in the works, and will come in both Richter and PowerBender/PowerDraw versions.
An Easttop version is coming too. They all have their quirks snd it takes time to get each one optimised, plus I'm working on other unrelated stuff at present, so they will take a little time.

Re: Unibender
It's pretty much ready, though I'd need to double check everything as I haven't looked at it for a while. There is another product coming after I have all the SlipSlider versions out, then I'll get to the UniBender.

Recent Live Videos and their Harmonicas
We can get a bit dry on this forum talking about tunings, slides, rocker-arms and other technical stuff, but it's good to remember that these things are all just means to an end: to play the music we love in a pleasing way! In the case of this forum, they are alternate approaches that can hopefully ...

Re: The SlipSlider - a Revolutionary Blues Harp.
Pics can be attached but they need to be a ridiculously small size, will see if that can be increased.
In the meantime you can use the Resize option in an app like Paint on PCs to reduce photo size.
