Hello all I'm knew to playing tremolo harmonica but not knew to harmonica.
I've played short harps for about 25 or 30 years. What got me interested
in tremolo was Celtic music. Plus the tremolo is a underdog harp and i
always like taking up for the underdog.

I got an old tremolo Hohner Preciosa gave to me about 6 months ago
and never picked it up until about a month ago. It's got a wonderful
sound for folk tunes and the like. I was hooked on the tremolo from
that point on. But not wanting to wear out my old tremolo made some where
in the mid 30' to 40's as near as i can tell. I order the Suzuki 2 timer
and it's a very nice playing harp very air tight, reeds respond well
and tuning is nice. The only thing i don't like about is that it
don't have as nice as a tremolo effect as the old preciosa.

But if you like a dry tremolo i would recommend this harp for any one
interested in getting started with tremolo or just wanting to get a second
harp. You can never have to many good harps but you can get all the bad
harps you want for a lot more money.

I bought an octave tune Marine Band harp back in the early 80's
and those's things are around 40 bucks now. You better have some
good lungs to play that thing. Thats why i have not tried another dual reed
harmonica until now. But the 2 timer is just as easy to blow as a 10 short  
harp.
Great harps they are i tell ya.
