Lee Oskars, Huang and other eastern made harps do not work well for
overblows. You're best bet is to stick with the hohners preferably the
golden melody, special 20 and marine band.

overblow on hole 6. However, while I

can do it smoothly on Hohner
Harps (Special 20 and Meisterklasse),

I have problems to get it properly
on Lee Oskar Harps. The overblow

works but generates a rattling
noise. Setting the gaps real close helps

a little bit but doesn't eliminate
the rattling.

Any help is
appreciated.

Thanks,
