Try Jim. He's your Seydel guru. No doubt he'll find you very, very soon. Just check every now and again.

Seydel USA will generally repair broken reeds for no charge as long as the harp isn't too old or too abused.

If that isn't an option, I can and do Seydel repairs.

@tookatooka "No doubt he'll find you very, very soon."


LOOOL I've found him

I died laughing :-D


@Harptime:

I could help you out, but it depends on where you are located. If you're in the US, shipping to me would cost you much more than repairing it at a local luthier.

Warren,

I can take care of that for you. Email me and I can provide pro 1847 players and customizers for reference. I do repairs and full customizations...I don't don't advertise them on my site.

Just for good measure

Greg is my go to guy for seydels. Very down to earth, honest and generally a cool humble guy who takes the time to keep in touch about the items he sells


Seydel did a repair for me on a bunged reed and the harp came back good as new within a weeks time. Os really took care of me very fast and no questions asked.

Might I add that there was no charge whatsoever

Dave Payne at Elk River replaced one for me on a Silver, and did a good job.

Looks like the usually suspect have already spoken up or been mentioned. Move along. Nothing to see here. (I've only personally done business with Dave Payne. Really nice guy. I don't know if he is making his Chestnut combs at the moment, but he made me a beautiful one for my Seydel. I mean, if you were already sending it to him...)

Willspear- I misread that. I only saw the 'no questions asked'. I suddenly had images of nefarious back street harmonica repair shops for when you bent a reed in the commission of double homicide and don't want the fuzz to find out!
