I don't get it. I purchased a Chinese Chicago by JDR and it is a great harp. Plays very well right out of the box. Also have a Easttop Maxwell Street Blues- also great right out of the box.

Purchased a Seydel Blues Soloist Pro and had to gap 3 reeds! It was terrible out of the box.
These Chinese harps are really well made and my experience has been they play well.

Not really crazy about sending my money to a Chinese company but I wanted to give them a try.

Hey, block blast there! I enjoyed how you broke down the various techniques for playing harmonica in the Dirty-South Blues style. I recall attempting to incorporate some of those bends into my playing, and it felt like I was learning a new language!
