Subject: ringing sound

I recently (a few months ago) bought a L.O. C harp and am having problems
now with a ringing sound on more than a few of the holes. It happens when
I bend the 2, 3, and 6 holes for a period more then about a third of a second.
Sometimes it even happens when I start the bend. I never had any problems
with this before, and I don't think it's from too much pressure, since even
with the lightest draw bend I sometimes just get ringing - no bend.

I assume that the sound is coming from reeds hitting the covers - does anyone
know of any solution? Is it my technique? I've played other harps: S20,
Blues harp, and haven't had any problems.

Thanks,
- - Jeff
