Khomus-Forges
Where can I get a high quality Jews Harp?
I know how difficult it is to get a high quality khomus.
So I decided to make a little survey. I wrote to the best Forges
in Molln, Austria, Zella-Melis, Germany, Kekshemet, Hungary and
tried to get a instrument. Also I asked Spiridon for his thoughts
about that matter.
Whenever I find a very good Instrument, I will show
it here. All of the Khomus here are testet and If you want to get
one, - here you can see what is going on.
I do not participate in your orders - its just a service
from Khomus.de
F.A. Schluetter from Zella-Mehlis,
Thueringen, Germany
F.A.
Schlütter aus Zella-Mehlis was the fastest. 3 Days after
my mail O got a first response. Whow! Congratulations Mr.Schlütter!
Powerfull sound, rich of overtones and very light. Even a good Instrument
for Beginners. That is a very good Instrument I recommend to buy
this.

Indian Jewsharps
The right one is from Rajasthan and decorated at the Front. The left one is
from South-India.
Both are wonderfull for Percussion.
The Rajastan Jewsharp, called Moorjang, is a bit deeper
in sound, made of a softer Steel.
The South-Indian Jewsharp, called Moorsing is tuned higher and
a very typical indian Jewsharp.
The classical South-Indian Music is using the Moorsing for Percussion
Purposes.
