I had to order a bunch of harps for a close friend who had over $2,000 in harps stolen last week! While on the line, I asked if they had an A or G Tbird in...turns out they had one of each, so I bit the bullet and put the order in for them.
Anyone try those keys yet? I already have TBirds in LLF and LF which are STELLAR, a LD and LEb Sleigh, LF# Big River, LE and Db MB's (had to tune down a D), two LC's, and a great LBb from jim...I think I am just missing a Low B?

I tried them all at SPAH. I liked them. I have a low C and a low D. The low A, Bb, G etc., were all very nice.

I have a low G. Very nice, though it could use a little tweaking (what harp couldn't?). I was surprised to find that I was starting to get bends on Draw 3 and even 2 after a few days of noodling.
I also have a Low D. It's not as nice as my Filisko Low D (again, unfair comparison) but it seems to play better than a stock Low D in the regular line - it feels more like an A-harp - the lowness isn't as apparent in playing response.

All good news! I thought the LLF was killer, and I've only been playing low tuned harps sparingly until this year, so I was hoping they were all so awesome.
Not sure what I'll use them for, but I find myself always reaching for the low harps when noodling at home.
