Wow I started a jaw harp thread. XO- never heard of a scacciapensieri! I use a Fred Whitlow model, tuned to G. Fred Whitlow's never rust ya know...cost $25. Got a couple bamboo ones from...some South American country I think. I ferget, heh.

Influx- yeah I should make some loops huh? it'll give me an excuse to test out live-monitoring on my new system. Gimme a week or so- we got a gig Friday nite so that's my main focus right now- but after that I'll record some loops and post 'em somwhere for you guys to d-load.

Shit that looks tuff!

Wish I could show you these wooden ones I got right here. No dig. camera and too lazy to scan, oh well.

Y'know I read somewhere that in Italy young suitors used to serenade the ladies with jaw harps! I guess you make a bunch a boingy boner sounds and she's yours, ha ha!

Influx you should get a jaw harp just for that ;-)

Looks like a vice. It clamps onto your lips? Does it have presets?

Love Jaw harps! I've owned several, but I've been without one for the last three years. Me last one is one of the few bits I've ever had stolen (of all fugging things...). This thread reminds me I need to get a new one.... Very cool instruments...

Marvelous thing the egg shaker. Tip for drummers... With just a bodrhan and a shakey egg you can do whole beats with one hand. Wedge the bodrhan under you chin, get your hat pattern going with the egg, thump the bodran skin with the egg on the kick beats and the hit shell on the snare beats. Instant breakbeats... and you can use the other hand to hold your beer/fag or whatever.
