Review: 2 Cool Harmonicas: The Big Six & Baby Fat!

[@RayBrookes1954]

I only just discovered your channel a week or so ago and have to say what an awesome harp player you are. Excellent skills. I thought I could play ok but now I think I'll just stick to guitar.

Thank you Roly. Love your Harp Wah!

[@fulviovalsecchi3420]

Thank You ! I play chromatic but this diatonic harps are very interesting !

[@airmojo]

Yep, they both work great with your Harp Wah... I've owned a Big Six (in C) since they first came out, and I also play the 1847's since they first came out (awesome harps)... don't really play the Big Six that much... I sort of missed the 7th hole ! Recently bought the Baby Fat in the key of G (more fun than another C harp with train and fox chase rhythms), and really like it... but now I miss the 8th hole ! :) Both are kind of novelty pocket harps... I keep the Big Six in a shortened Seydel leather harp case sleeve... made one for the Baby Fat too, but then found a zippered case that my Samson GoMic came in, and it fits perfect... best to try and keep the pocket fuzz out of them... would be nice if both companies offered a nice pocket case for them, since they are made for pockets ! The Kongsheng harp prices are great, but not sure on the longevity. I would buy another Baby Fat before I bought another Big Six.

How is cleaning the Baby Fat?

[@RolyPlatt]

not sure but should be the same as any other.

I bought a Harp Wah from you sir, I'm being a little cheeky here sir and I think the baby dat is a good colour combo for your harp way hehe but love your video and harp wah

Being a bit cheeky, are we?

[@desperatedan3985]

[@AlexeyKormin]

Baby Fat in C looks good with Harp Wah :)

[@RolyPlatt]

Thanks man!

[@moravian3913]

Привет, короче говоря Зайдель лучше: выдерживает хорошую атаку, долговечен, является копией 1847 (калаша), а бэбифет - это просто нормальная китайская гармошка.

[@DP-hw9uq]

Tried one today and… dunno, maybe it was bad luck, but I never heard or touched an harmonica so crappy and toy-like like this… extremely disappointed.

[@RolyPlatt]

Hi. Which one did you try?

[@DP-hw9uq]

@@RolyPlatt the pink one… D tuning

[@RolyPlatt]

So the Baby Fat. Ya, it’s possible you got a bad harp but more likely everybody is going to feel a little or a lot different about the harps they play. It is a very personal experience for sure. I thought for the price, they were quite nice. I appreciate your feedback on them.

[@DP-hw9uq]

@@RolyPlatt you know what I just found out? One of the holes that hold the screws is unusually large compared to the other, and the screw just goes right through it… it’s a manufacturer’s fault. Could it be affecting its air tightness and overall sound?

[@RolyPlatt]

@@DP-hw9uq Not sure about that issue. It might be best to contact them directly or through social media.
