Stop Fighting Your Harps!
Learn How to Customize Your Harmonicas Like a Pro
Ever wonder if it’s you or the harmonica? One harp plays like butter, the next makes you work twice as hard for half as much. The truth is:
-
Buying stock harmonicas is a lottery. The raw materials of higher end harps may be very good, but the final adjustments made at the factories are all over the map.
-
A few simple tweaks can transform any decent quality harmonica into a harp that works with you, not against you.

For the last 30+ years I’ve built and repaired custom harmonicas for players around the world.Now I’m sharing those secrets with you in:

" Best $49 I ever spent! - I studied volumes one and two over and over and the skills that I have right now allow me to build a harp that darn near plays itself hehe. I'm playing better than I ever have and I believe a lot of it's due to the custom harps that I can now build for myself.”
Tim Ashby, Salem Oregon.
“These harps are incredible.-Bends & overbends that were impossible now feel natural. Took me to a new level.” - Mark Vesser
