'AT A BOY Stubs
(see. you still didn't get a whole "that a boy" :)
Was that an ECHO harp, or just an effects box?

Im using a C Lee Oskar in 1st pos,with a fast chorus effect that sounds kinda like a tremelo,the 2nd harp is a Lee oskar F harp in 2nd with delay just noodled that;-)But We just got a lot of Tremelo lessons put on the schools site,Im thinking about getting a Susukie tremelo and trying them in the future.

suzuki humming is great i have one in G and it plays much better than most and the tuning is very good.
that being said i believe that a hohner weekender would be a fine first choice. one, they are cheap and more than one popular tremolo player uses them. they do only come in the key of c.
the hohner echo celeste is a little higher and has a nice case. it also comes in many keys. they are o.k. if you want many keys at affordable prices. i have about 7 of them and for knocking around they are great.
if i were going to play tremolo with a group or duet i would opt for a suzuki set.
i am not trying to talk you out of the suzuki. i just thought i would toss this in. no matter what you do ... i believe you will be happy with the suzuki humming.
by the way all of these harps (except the weekender) are tuned similar to chromatic...without the repeated C.

thanks clyde
Yes my teacher highly recomends the Humming,Ive thought about the 2 timers ,but hes says the humming is the way to go,What im to understand the lessons he has on the site you can use a 21 or a 24 hole harp but the lessons are wrote with the note pattern of the Asian harpsI,guess the 21 hole is more poular in Japan and 24 is in China,From what Ive understand from my teacher. The tremelo is the most popular harp, In the east where they play it in groups like a full band of just harps.The sister school was started in china and has over 50,000 members mostly into tremlo from what i understand,I ve been told the HoHner has a different note layout,so are not recomended for the course,But the Humming is the one they recomend at the school but im not sure which one i want the 21 hole or 24

hobo,
the hohner echo celeste is also tuned to the asian solo pattern so it would work. i almost forgot i have heard some pretty good things about the swan senior performance 24 hole tremolo. both are made in china. both are price right...well below the humming.
make no mistake about it though...there is a big difference between those two and the humming.
one other thing....the tombo tremolos are in the same class as the humming....but good luck getting one of those if yo are in the u.s.
