So, not technically a "Snoopy" but probably just repackaged as a different brand I really started to wonder why I wasn't progressing at all after almost two years with it. I watched this one and had a $40 Glazyrin Samurai shipped to me the next day. And yeah... That's no joke. I could hear it instantly in my head the first time plucking the reed. So, I gotta say dude... just for that alone. Thank you.

[@arctichare8185]

Actually, I had no idea there were better jews harps than the Snoopy-esque versions available. This opens a whole new world for me.

So I've had that Samurai for a few months now and I still love it. The lady went and got a scythian for me which is also really nice. Good action and high pitch. But here is how I know she's the one... She also went and got me a rainbow and that thing has such a nice deep sound. My fave so far for sure!

[@liammcguigan1783]

I bought a very similar one a few years ago, eventually gave up on jaw harp altogether as I was convinced I just couldn’t play. Last year I got a Potkin harp, and couldn’t believe the difference. Now I’m completely hooked, got my next one on the way as we speak. That cheap amazon harp almost stopped me from playing altogether.

[@rubyfirefly2582]

Thank you! Found an old harp that I got as a kid, like 45 years ago maybe. It's definitely the Snoopy or one of similar low quality. We never could figure out how to play it, and now I know why. Because it sucks! LOL

[@NiekopTube]

Then I guess, you must be a master player if you pick up a REAL harp!

[@PyroNinja713]

Lol, yeah I've had one for a couple weeks now and already gone from hating it to getting used to it and loving it. I have already ordered an upgrade though.

[@milododds1]

If you can play the Snoopy Harp then I too agree once you try these other jaw harps you will feel like you're driving a luxury car sort of experience....but seriously if you play half way decently on a super cheap harp then it's forced you to become probably a much better player. Like with anything in life the more time and dedication you give to something the better you will be at it. I've heard musicians play stringed instruments made out of fishing line who sounded amazing and yet a novice who spends thousands for the top of the line instruments can still sound horrible.

I forgot to add that I wouldn't have made it this far without this video, along with the others, about educating me about the jaw harp techniques I needed to know. Thank you Bebbcorp Harpery!

[@milododds1]

I love...love....the Glazyrin Lighthouse....such a good choice you made. I've only been playing mine for a couple of days but my first jaw harp was the Magic by Vlad which is a larger Glazyrin style of harp.

[@PyroNinja713]

I saw and bought a Snoopy harp at a pawn shop a couple of weeks ago. After repeatedly failing to get sound and damn near breaking my teeth for like the tenth time I got frustrated and literally just bent the tongue over 90 degrees and threw it in the garbage. After a couple minutes I decided I shouldn't throw $5 away so easy and bent it back roughly to its original position. Somehow that kinda fixed it and I got a little bit of sound when I breathed real heavily while plucking. Then I noticed in someone else's tutorial they were gripping the hell out of their harp, so I did the same and that really helped by squeezing the huge gaps tighter. I actually did order the gold one you showed at the end yesterday though. Just gotta wait for shipping and deal with my half busted Snoopy until then now.

[@twillkickers]

Thank you so much for this video! That evil Snoopy harp almost made me completely give up on playing jaw harp entirely. Now I have a wonderful Small Morchang from your website and it is so much fun!!! My toddler loves it and I think we will be getting further into the hobby in the future. If it weren't for this video, I would have completely missed out on these fun instruments.

Your comparison brought memory when I learned to type. Half the class got the new electric IBM's and the rest of us got the real old fashioned manuals. When the semester reached halfway, we switched. At first it was like switching from a mini bike to a dirt bike. I couldn't believe the power. I had to develop a light touch. And now today I use a stylus. Speed not as fast but do ok. Accuracy is the problem with cell phone screens for typing.

Jamie man your thumbnail and seeing the title just made my day brother..That snoopy harp has ruined so many people's hopes, teeth and ideas of what they think a real harp is supposed to be for too many years. Buy a real harp ya'll this is the man to talk too

[@milododds1]

I got spoiled with the $70 to $140 jaw harps and then tried the cheaper harps $30 range and wow what a difference but learning on the cheaper harps might actually force you to develop better skills because they are less forgiving with their reeds being more flexible. But it is kind of cool switching between them because you begin to appreciate how the harps are so different and there are things you can do with the smaller/cheaper harps that just aren't possible with the larger ones. I suspect that collecting jaw harps could easily turn into an addiction. I also took your advice and purchased quite a few of the harps you suggested in another video that ought to be arriving within the next week or two (various Ghorka and Drymba). I'm already a big fan of the Glazyrin style of harps which is what I started playing on. Unfortunately some of the harps you had suggested are sold out so I tried to pick something close to your suggestions, either going higher or lower with their pitch, larger or smaller in size, and in some cases going from steel (sold out) to brass (still in stock). I might have to try out some of the Indian jaw harps after watching you play one of them in this video. I'm even giving the Clackamore a try which sounds super cool. Ok I'm totally Jaw Harp Crazy...having a blast and I love watching your videos, please keep them coming.

I wasn't making any progress, and my heart dropped when you showed the harp on screen and it was the exact same one I have but rebranded as a "Real Bluegrass Jaw Harp." It has a picture of a cowboy playing it on the front in red and blue ink. I'm only 13 and I'm lucky that I found out it was fake this early on will hopefully get it refunded. Thank you, man.

Bought the Snoopy Harp's cousin - The Trophy Blue Grass Jaw Harp. As with the Snoopy Harp, very stiff and very quiet. No fun at all. Then I discovered your KZbin videos and soon purchased a Potkin standard from The Harpery. Lots of fun, but what to do with the Blue Grass harp? After watching your video on constructing a harp, I used some of your techniques to modify the Blue Grass harp. I used a Dremel with 80 grit to thin the reed and polished it with 400 grit. I narrowed the gap and polished the inside edges to refine and even the gap out. I also tightened the connection where the reed joins the harp. End result, the reed is more responsive and the sound, while still softer than the Potkin is much improved (and bassy). Not great, but good and better than throwing $8.50 into the garbage.

[@jackfisher273]

I’ve recently purchased a “Snoopy” Jaw harp at a market stall in the French Quarter. I’ve watched this, and many other Jaw Harp tutorials countless times and any time I attempted to play, I can’t make any noise. I pluck the harp with it placed against my teeth and I only receive a faint metal grinding sound. Please help. What am I doing wrong?

[@bebbcorpharpery7331]

Go to the seller and get a refund. Snoopy are defective by design.

[@EricAwful313]

Any solutions to making the Snoopy Harp actually resonate? Mine produces none what so ever not even a little.

[@bebbcorpharpery7331]

Best option is to request a refund on a snoopy. Here is changing one, not worth the effort or result. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGmwp6N4nLZsodk

Ah , turns out I'm just shit woth my one😂

[@maks9589]

the one I bought as a kid was even worse, the schylling jaw harp. it looks identical and it doesn’t make any sound at all

[@GrimTheDragonLord7]

Of course my mom bought me the Snoopy one

[@bebbcorpharpery7331]

That is ok. The snoopy is specifically calmly marketed to trick people into buying it for their first harp. I bought a snoopy equivalent as my first harp. See if she can request a refund as defective from the seller. Then head over to theharpery.com and check out our article on beginner harps. Free shipping in the US and never a toy harp.

Why won’t your jaw harp work

[@leoperez-hb9iz]

what about the blue grass one

[@dogssss5189]

Mine works so well and it’s a snoopy

Does the Ghorka Tailess and Rekha Hybrid have flexible reeds?

[@bebbcorpharpery7331]

Depends on your definition of flexible. They are on the upper end of medium stiffness.

[@tyrozone5]

@@bebbcorpharpery7331 oh ok, because the harps I got in my collection have flexible reeds (except the Tamil Nadu Morsing, which I also have). It feels more comfortable when playing the harp with a flexible reed.

[@bebbcorpharpery7331]

Tamil Nadu have very stiff reed. Let me know the harps in your collection and I will let you know how the stiffness compares.

[@MobileIsland496]

How does he get the double sounds?

[@Jsjs-el2fw]

I have a Mauro jaw harp but I still can barely get a loud noise out of it why is that?

[@bebbcorpharpery7331]

Mauro isn’t really a brand of jaw harp. It is a seller on Amazon and eBay. Do you have a link to the harp. I will be able to tell the type from there

[@TanzBarKeiten]

[@markperryman797]
