Call your act Band Aid. Everyone'll think at first you're doing charity concerts.

No rusty strings though. You don't use steel wire on a bass do you?

The best thing I play is jaw harp. Yeah you know, jew's harp or whatever...I picked it up years ago and I dunno, got good at it.

Sort of saved our asses (me&Marianne) a few years ago at one of our very first gigs in Chicago. I was basically just backing her w/ an s20 playing loops and stuff. Turned everything off after we were done but they wanted more! SO I had to bust some boing-boing on 'em, Marianne accompanied on XP-50 drumz.

Yep, everyone loves a jaw harp ;-)

i've got a stacciapensieri (toffish peal of lafter) the 'lamborghini' of JAH harps.. planar design. much less vibration-to-teeth, you maybe try, you like!

i understand that certain vectors in the orient consider metal ones to be too loud, not appropriate for correct meditative playing..

sorry, it's scacciapensieri, i'm just fond of those fuzzy lil' stachys byzantium thingys.

did a search, came up with nothing.. had to mention that (since there's prolly been a dozen manufs come and gone since then) in addition to the frame being stamped out of a flat sheet, this model extends past the plucky bit and joins at the end which really minimises the amount of vibration passed through to your teeth/skull region.

if you've only tried the conventional 'snoopy' type, i don't blame you at all. those things are absolute murder.

hey i'm all excited. i'll set up my scanner now because i can. i show.
