I make the following three types of jaw harps
I divide the jaw harps produced by me into 3 types according to their properties and production process difficulty and efficiency, as shown below. The dimensions of individual jaw harps vary mainly depending on the basic tone of a specific piece. In general, a low-pitched jaw harp will be longer than a high-pitched. Therefore, the resulting jaw harp may look different from the example photo below. If you have a specific request on the appearance of jaw harp, please write to me.
Jaw harp "Beginner"
Jaw harp "Beginner" is a basic full-fledged model. Thanks to the robust body, it is easy to hold by any hand. The instrument construction allows even beginner players to make interesting sounds very easily. This model is therefore suitable for first attempts with a jaw harp, but not only that. The sound is full and contains many aliquot tones. Therefore it also provides sufficient opportunities for learning more advanced playing techniques. Melodies can also be played on the "Beginner". It looks simple and rough only on the outside, which is due to the fact that, in order to save production time and thereby reduce the final price, I leave the body of the jaw harp without additional fine machining and grinding.

Jaw harp "Profi"
Jaw harp "Profi" is the golden middle way. In the production of this type, I place increased emphasis on precision processing, tuning accuracy and final surface treatment. The result is a high-quality jaw wharp with a narrow gap between the tongue and the jaw harp body. Thanks to this, it has a clear sound and a very sensitive response to all playing techniques. The tongue is stable, suitable for both slow and fast play by striking in both directions. Those who have experience playing the jaw harp, musicians, enthusiasts and even skilled beginners will get the most out of the "Profi" type. Thanks to its high gloss and overall luxurious appearance, it is also suitable as an original gift. Audio samples:
Jaw harp "Concert"
The stylish "Concert" jaw harp brings the strongest experience for both the player and the listeners. The balanced and complex sound character will be manifested in the hands of skilled and experienced players who can control the jaw harp, are not afraid to go deep and reveal the limitless possibilities of this model, whether on stage or in a quiet environment at home or in nature. Penetrating volume, a wide range of clear aliquot tones, excellent response, stable vibration of the reed, versatile use - all this is contained in the "Concert" jaw harp thanks to the amount of time I devote to its production.
