    Thanks Greg. Simple video as usual. I just ordered some spare reeds and bolts from Seydel. I messed up an 8 draw reed on my favourite harp so it's worth a shot. I was ready to throw it away so a new set of reeds in UK £35 & the bits cost me 30£ so we'll see. If it goes well I got a B harp with a bum reed so I'll fix that up too. 👍

    There are felt pads inside my sydel harmonica. When you rinse the harmonica they soak up water. What are they for and do I need them. This is a 10-hole seydell stainless steel reed blues favorite

    • @AllThingsSeydel
      @AllThingsSeydel 3 місяці тому

      these are called valves and they make some of them play smoother. They also allow for single reed bends. You may take them out if you want and may not notice a difference but they do help somewhat on lower tuned harps.

    • @AllThingsSeydel
      @AllThingsSeydel 3 місяці тому

      Those are called "valves" or "windsavers" and they have dual purpose. They actually help low harps play a little better. They also permit single reed bends which allow the player to play more chromatically - with proper instruction and practice.

    • @AllThingsSeydel
      @AllThingsSeydel 10 місяців тому

      I use valve glue which is basically clear epoxy fabric adhesive (E6000) But nail polish works really well. The key is you are only limiting the vibrations .. reducing not eliminating them. One other thing that helps is the gap. The lower the gap the less the squeal but obviously, there is a limit to that. Good discussion and hope this helps..

    Dear Greg, Thank you for the video. I have the deluxe steel harmonica with the current mouthpiece assembly order. First, put the blank, then the slider, and then the H-bar. On the other hand, in Saxony, the design is first the H-bar, then the slider, and then the blank. I have two questions. 1. Why is it so? Is one of the orders better? 2. Does the Saxony mouthpiece assembly fit the deluxe steel harmonica?

    • @AllThingsSeydel
      @AllThingsSeydel Рік тому

      I'm not exactly sure why it is designed as such. The H-Bar design is Seyde'ls premier mouthpiece/slide setup. In general, the parts are completely interchangeable.... This is true for newer generation Seydel chromatics but it is possible that there are parts out there for older models that can't be switched around but most of them can and are interchangeable.. thankfully.. that's another brilliant feature of Seydel's outstanding design and manufacturing team.

  • @gastonpiget1034
    @gastonpiget1034 Рік тому

    Just watched this video again, and now a question. Often I hear a faint, hollow, metallic sound mid-range on my Symphony 48 orchestra tuning. Is that normal? Or is some reed (or are some reeds) just slightly touching the edge of the reed slot? This is especially noticable when I push the slide in.

    • @AllThingsSeydel
      @AllThingsSeydel Рік тому

      Great question. This is not normal but it isn't necessarily abnormal, either. I would say this is most likely a reed barely bumping the slot. If you can identify which reed it is, you can try to realign it or next time you send it in for service, make a note and I will see if I can fix it.

    Thank you for the excellent video. After watching, I have the courage to replace the spring in my Seydel steel harmonica, even though my spring is still working. Is it worth replacing the spring after several years due to potential fatigue? It is better to assemble (at least partially), as the first step, the cover plates and only then the slider parts. I think that such an order of assembling (cover plates first) better protects the valves. Am I wrong?

    • @AllThingsSeydel
      @AllThingsSeydel Рік тому

      Don't replace the spring until it breaks. There is no need to mess with it. Also on some models you can't assemble the slider first to protect the valves. If you can, it is always best.
