The folks at K&M must've read one of the previous reviews that suggested putting a star washer in the hinge joint because the one I received came with them. Together with the plenty-large (approx. 5/8") knobs, this rack stays tight and keeps the harmonica nice and secure and in a comfortable playing position. At least for me, and at least for now. And I don't foresee having any troubles with it in my lifetime.FYI, I'm what you might call a mediocre amateur who plays Neil Young and Bob Dylan style harmonica while also playing guitar for my own enjoyment and for my friends (you'd have to ask them if they enjoy it too!). I don't know, maybe if you play blues style you might put more pressure on the rack while playing. I wouldn't know, but this thing works great for me. Worlds better than the old piece of junk I had for 40 years before this one. I really like the design of the hinge joint. It has a piece of Delrin, or similar plastic, that serves as an anchor for the fixed end of the spring that holds the harp, which extends down to the hinge joint where it forms a "Y" with the steel part, and the piece that goes around your neck gets sandwiched between the two along with the star washer to form a non-slip joint.(I can't make heads nor tails of this description on re-reading, so I guess I'd better include a photo to show you what I mean.)The only two things I can think of as negatives are: 1 - I find it difficult to change from one harmonica to another while wearing the rack, which can be annoying since it seems like every song I know is in a different key and I end up changing harmonicas a lot between songs. This is mostly because of the strong spring tension that holds the harp securely though, so I can't really complain about it. 2 - The little beard-hairs just below my lower lip get caught between the harmonica and the rack once in a while, like when I try to change harmonicas without removing the rack from around my neck. OUCH! But it shouldn't be a problem unless you're a scraggly old aging hippie like I am.I just got this contraption yesterday though, and these minor annoyances might well resolve themselves with a little experience. They don't rise to the level of taking stars away from my rating anyway.Bottom line is that this thing does just what it's supposed to do for me and is comfortable to boot. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

Buena calidad

Super Produkt zum unschlagbaren PreisGruß RoLo

comprato usato, costa più di un armonica buona da principianti, ma se si vuole suonare la chitarra nel mentre è indispensabile.facile anche da togliere e mettere l’armonica durante un esecuzione del brano se si vuole fare del bending.va esercitato perché cambia l’approccio anziché muovere l’armonica si muove la testa

At first I thought it was too small ..to low..because it was so different from the cheap one I had. Then I took a few minutes to give it a chance..low and behold turns out it is a perfect fit..next problem was the hold down bar was covering the sound holes over my new Hohner echo tremolo harmonica...I fixed that problem. I cut a 3 inch piece off of a wooden paint stick..( the one they always give you when you buy a can of paint). and .ans sanded it down till it fit perfect on top of the harmonica and then glued it to the underside of the bar in the centre..this holds it down firmly and gives a space for the sound holes. then blackened it with a majic marker.. to match the color..problem solved. Another feature I discovered...when I started to sing on the microphone after playing the harmonica..my lips were above the organ ..much more convenient then using my cheaper holder where my lips were always behind the organ when I started to sing..another plus... also the bar extends pass the springs so it is easier to insert and release...so to sum it up...this is a well made product...designed perfectly for playing harmonica hands free. you might notice in the picture there is a space between the bar and the sound holes..
