For anyone who happens to be in Frankfurt this week: I’ll be at the Frankfurt Musikmesse (Germany’s equivalent of the NAMM Show) on Friday/Saturday. I get harps made for me by a couple of the manufacturers attending, and will be at their booths to demonstrate them.

SEYDEL BOOTH: Hall 8.0, booth C89
The excellent player-friendly German harmonica company Seydel works with people like me, PT Gazell, Tony Eyers etc to make our specialist harps available for those who want them. Currently Seydel makes two of my tunings: PowerBender and PowerDraw. I'll be demonstrating them in two slots at the Seydel booth:

Friday 4.30 pm
Saturday 2 pm

Here is the Seydel PowerBender and PowerDraw page, with details of the harps and demo videos of the tunings:

EASTTOP BOOTH: Hall 8.0, booth G04
The fast-rising Chinese manufacturer Easttop makes three models for me: the Lucky 13, Slide Diatonic and AsiaBend. All these models will be at their booth from the beginning of the Messe for anyone to stop by and play. I’ll be at the Easttop booth off and on during Friday/Saturday; if I’m not there when you call I won’t be far away, just ask when I’ll be back.

For those curious, here is more info on these three harps:

I’ll also have my prototype of the new Lekholm DM48 MIDI harmonica with me for people to check out if interested, plus various other custom harmonicas of various kinds. Hope to see some of you there!

In my collection, I have a Seydel, as well as a Swan. The Swan (chromatic) is built like a piece of iron. I have yet to try out an Easttop . Does Swan also have promotional booths at such events?
