So I got a new harp today. A Hohner Big River Harp in C. So far I'm liking it. Good sound (to me), good weight, an MS series. & the covers are braced,so no bending in of the middle. Since I tend to hold my harp a bit to tightly when I get goin. best of all,theres no tuning to be done out of the box. Also, it has a plastic comb,so NO SWELLING :) like with my MB. So, what are your thoughts on this harp?

Personally i don't like them. They seem very 'airy' to me even after some gapping which does improve them slightly. I think the best thing about them is the box. Every harp should come in a case like a Big River. Apart from that i'm not a fan.
