GUEST,DixieTom(guest) BS: Stuck harmonica reed? DON'T suck! (11) Stuck harmonica reed? DON'T suck! 10 Apr 01


For those seasoned harmonica players among you...there may be yet one more lesson to learn... From my college-student brother who plays harmonica: "I went to math class this morning an then did spanish homework. Then I tooted around on my harmonica for a while and noticed that one hole was not giving a clear tone...I tried to suck all the dust out but it just buzzed a whole bunch. So, I opened up the casing to figure out what was wrong. Couldn't see anything, until I lifted up the reed...and there saw a dried up fly body! The damned thing had crawled in there, died, and dried up. Just to think I was trying my hardest to pull air through that hole! Anyway, after I got over my surprise, I crushed him with a paper clip and got the stuff out and now the harp works fine."
