Embossing harmonica reed slots on C harmonica with harp customiser Sugar Cain Hamilton

[@ChrisEbbrsen]

I have used a penny before to emboss an old chrimatic harmonica. Didnt work out so well. Thank you for the demostration.

[@garykuzminski7969]

Fantastic! Thank you for the thoughtful explanation of your embossing method. Very generous and so much needed. Kudos gents. Love from Chicago.

Nice one Gary. My jug band (www.thejakelegjugband.com) are planning a US tour for September 2019 - if you know any good venues in Chicago then do let me know because we want to include Chicago on the tour. Venue names would be great, any personal contacts would be even better. Cheers, Liam :)

My reed plates are steel, it seems too hard to be worked on like this. What do?

[@john-nx4xn]

Will notes bend easier

[@fsoliver]

keep him talking. Sugar Cain Hamilton on Reed Shaping would be good. Have you done that one with him?

[@cantcheatkarma3493]

Could you send me a sugar cain harp please? I've just buggered up a brand new special 20, it's now a special needs 20! Oh, well, you live and learn, eh!!

[@6Oko6Demona6]

The trick is to start learning this stuff on old harmonicas, obviously you're gonna screw up a few times before you get it sorta fina.

[@garysellars8914]

No good this method on welded reeds though like Suzuki. Also not a fan of this pulling the reed aside to emboss. You will constantly need to switch the reed back and forth to check your results. Better to do it without moving the reed IMO. Good video though.
