Re: Discontinued

Well done on making it! Not sure why you're having trouble with the bends (I presume you mean the new blow bends mostly?). Maybe it's just a matter of practice, since you won't be used to blow bends in the lower range I assume. But if the harp is airtight and gaps are god they should kick in easily....

Re: Easttop Brass comb

Yes, the combs are well ramped in the high end, no need for PowerPlugs.

Re: How would you retune an Asia Bend?

Yes, a typo - should be spiked fiddle or Kamanche. Iranian/Kurdish instrument:

Re: PowerChromatic: The 12 Major Scales with Bends ; Setup Advice

I think the default key is good, still easy to play in C. Not that big a change, but you need to be able to bend notes to get the benefits of it. That's quite different to the stock Solo tuned chrom.

Thanks Paris - I'd completely forgotten writing 'Kitchenaire'!

You play it well! And have inspired me to try and remember it myself :-)
