PP27 - Altay Jews Harp - Cheap and Cheerful Jaw/Mouth Harp for Beginners Fun
Jew's harp from famous Altay (republic in Russia) workshop in a protective case. Good sound and ease to use makes this small (about 7cm length) komus one of the best choices available all over the world - considering it price. This is a real musical instrument, completely handmade - not a stamped toy like "SNOOPY HARP" (which is not playable at all). Potkin's jew's harps are best of Altay komuses produced for sale - for its price. Usually it is first and most affordable step in the world of jew's harps. But there is huge amount of much more interesting jew's harps exist nowadays - which are easier-cleaner-louder-powerful and totally enjoyable than this, so-called "beginners", model. Look for "recommended by Oberton Pro" instruments for more pleasure.

Jaw Harp
Jaw harp is one of the oldest musical instruments in the world with pocket size. Its rhythmic possibilities are endless and ability to change timbre in extreme, unusual ways are spectacular. Pure melodic playing with distinct overtones is possible too. It is easy to play and does not require musical training. To produce first sound, two frame ends must be hardly pressed to upper and lower teeth - not to lips - with left hand. Right index finger will be stroke reed elbow at direction, perpendicular to frame plane, inward and outward. The frame must not be squeezed with lips, teeth and hand!
Juice harp, mouth harp, ozark harp, trump, jew's trump are obsolete or wrong names of the jaw harp (US) or jew's harp (UK). This name has nothing common with the Jewish people. Other names in various regions of the world are: vargan, khomus, guimbarde, maultrommel, scacciapensieri, marranzano, arpa de boca, munnharpe, kubyz, dan moi, mondharp, temir-komuz, morsing, morchang, morsing, karinding, brumle, doromb, parmupill. More than 1000 names are known.

Shipping Safety
Each instrument checked by professional before packaging. We make custom wood block for the instruments without special case - it gives good protection against dropping, stepping and even jumping on package. You can use it all time later too. Moreover, block with jaw harp is wrapped with soft pack material and taped - you will need a scissors to remove it.
Defects
We guarantee that shipped instrument will be free of any defects and will play as intended by its maker. But any good instruments requires proper handling - many owners of souvenir toys looking like jaw harp, with huge gaps and primitive sound, are used to squeeze it hardly with hand, teeth or lips. These toys even plays louder when squeezed - and such habit arises unconsciously. If your new, real jew's harp produces metallic clangs: 1) remove lips from the frame; 2) reduce force of pressing it to teeth; 3) do not squeeze frame in vertical direction with fingers; 4) strike with 90 degree direction to the frame plane - without up, down, left or right offset. For more detailed guideline, refer to How to hold jaw harp properly guide (www.oberton.pro/info/handling/?lang=en).
But if you just don't like item received without any reason - we will make refund or replacement (excluding shipping cost). Our policy: Each instrument sold must play, not gather dust on the shelf!
