thanks guys for your help, as I mentioned I have just bought an " el cheapo " G harp which should arrive tomorrow. I will give it a blow with mouth or a hammer depending on what comes out..I presume that the draw hole is a suck ( inhale ) rather than a blow
again many thanks chaps
kind regards

hi michael,
although I am no jazz lover I will always remember him for his stranger on the shore........it still stands up well upto the present day... so yes he will be missed .just as a footnote, my eldest son Ian was a little infant at the time of aker's stranger, and each time it was played ( when he heard it of course ) he would burst out into tears....wierd or what

hiya snakie,
great vid really enjoyed it. as you say its something to be proud of. but I was slightly surprised to see you on the keyboard and not some great old national guitar
once again many thanks for this..............incidentally I did fit those tuners you mentioned ( from stewmac ) massive improvement as you suggested, cheers mate

thanks Davey for the info..........I like you have contacted his web page to find how he is doing, so that's good to know
I have met him a couple of times an amazingly modest, likable and helpful guy, looking forwards to his return....no doubt about it he is something special, get well soon johnny

well ! the discussion continues...I picked up some snooker table felt this morning and as mentioned in this article removed the cone and drew around the edge onto the felt .....measured the width of the ledge at the base of the well, then proceeded to draw a slightly larger diameter circle than the cone diameter....cut it all out no probs....spread some glue stick adhesive along the well ledge and stuck the gasket down ensuring there was a slight roll up the wall of the well and like wolvoboy there was too much length and I had to cut some off . the upshot of it is that the national definitely does sound sweeter BUT not massively so. I guess I need to wait a month or so for everything to bed in and then we will see, sorry I mean hear the difference
regards
