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.
