Hi Everyone,
I ordered a Manji Power Draw harp in D from Brendan on 18th July at roughly 11am.
It arrived this morning (20th) at 9:30am.
Somehow, Brendan procured the harp, changed the tuning and shipped in order to arrive in just a shade under 48 hours.
I'm amazed.
Oh, and Brendan: All the draw bends are easily there and the damn thing overblows OTB on 4,5 and 6. Amazing.
Thank you.
Steve

I aim to please... Seriously, I'm interested to hear from Steve an others who buy the PowerDraw tuning what they think.
It is the first six holes of a normal harp with the top end of a PowerBender, so gives you good octaves plus all draw bends throughout the full range up to hole 10.

I'm having a lot of fun with it. I haven't opened it up at all for gapping and I'm leaving it as is is for now as I want to get used to it OTB.
As much as I'd like to think my playing isn't prejudiced to holes 1-6, it is quite a lot. I think many people are due to the lack of expression and switch from draw to bend. Nice thing about the PD is 4 hole licks are there if you gliss up to the 8, and there's nothing to relearn in holes 1-6. Plus you've still got the 6 OB if you want it, but have the same note as a 7 draw bend. Nice and expressive.
Far too soon to give a proper review, but I feel I've found what I've been looking for.
