I'm honoured to partner with three respected harmonica customiser/repairers in USA and Europe, equipped with Lucky 13 reed sets and ready to service requests for custom tunings, reed work, reed replacement etc. They are Burke Trieschmann (USA), Jeff Wilson (Canada) and Ben Bouman (Holland). Copy and paste the link to check out their bios and photos:

I am glad to see Burke getting this gig. He is a great person and great harp customizer. I play his harps and love them. Walter

Well, I didn't get picked as an authorized customizer, but that isn't preventing me from modifying these for customers. I have a client who likes low harmonic minor tuned diatonics with combs that come out to the front. That describes the Lucky 13, so I am supplying her with those--I am tuning them so that the bottom 10 holes are as normal, except for hole 10 draw, which is the major 7th, and the top octave is the same 7-10, except that hole 13 draw has the minor 6th.
The harp I have here today is an A, and I just want to say, these certainly are fun to play! It's still in its original tuning, haven't modified it yet--great fun!
