Hi
I came across this vid on Youtube of harps customized by Jason Ricci.
Those metal key labels he uses look great. I hve looked all over the net for letal letters but these labels have to be tiny..just couldnt find those!
anyone knows where can I get those?

I'm not sure, but you might be able to fashion something similar using old movable type blocks and either gently grinding off the backs or drilling and squaring a hole to put them in (now that I think about it, that would look pretty cool, but then I'm into old newspaper memorabilia). The sites I found for metal lettering didn't make them quite small enough but you might find some terms useful for further Googling on them. You could also try posting the question directly on YouTube- if that doesn't work we can poke him on Facebook. They really do look sweet. :)

They are probably just tiny stickers with a coat of clear nail polish or something.

Seydel noble key labels can be ordered from seydel
Not that they are metal but I use the key labels from hetrick harmonicas. They cost something like 8 bucks and you stick em on and nail polish over them. Look good and stay on fine.
They come in a couple colors so you can get clors that stand out.

Turbo Harp sells ones that light up in the dark so you can find the right key, but they don't look as classy as those.

The other option is to ask Jason on Facebook. I don't know which he's more likely to check. I know I check Facebook more often myself, but I don't have a ton of people responding to my videos.
