I am now wondering why you got a new one, do you no longer like the sound of the old one?
My old Bandmaster Chromatic has a broken reed although by a miracle it is one of two identical ones so not the end of the world, but i got two Hohner "Super Chromonicas" in an auction recently, they both need taking apart and cleaning but they make a class sound. I had to do this to discover that the Seydel's system one (Bandmaster) is a little different from the other one in how it's played. Never knew there was more than one system. You can tell I play it by ear, (well with my mouth before peeps get funny)!
All good fun.
I do love a chromatic!
(Only way to play flamenco,;))

Nooooo.......... I like them both.
But he's my 1# Grand-kid and he showed an interest.
The Big river kept snatching my tash-hairs, and he is only 10 so that won't be a problem for him.
I might get the pack of 7 harps and have the complete set. :)

Good for you, re the Grand-kid!!:):):)
I lent my no 1 Grandkid my Roland electric piano, for years. He was a Wells Cathedral School scholar and his parents couldn't get him a piano. (He got a good scholarship and the funny handshake brigade through W's ex, helped out with the residual fees. but they were, and are, basically skint.)
Her looked after it very conscientiously and gave it back a while ago in perfect nick. He then went on and got a good degree in the electronics of music. He plays it miles better than I ever will!:rolleyes:
Love the idea of the set of harps. :):):)
You can imagine how my chromatics can catch my moustache hairs. One has to be very careful!!:eek::eek::eek:

DMFs seem to me to be the work of the devil and are anough to put me off getting a D2 TD5 manual, as if the electronix wasn;'t enuff, which it is!!!
Why does a TD5 2.5 litre diesel need a DMF when a 300 tdi 2.5 litre does not need one?
Answers on a postcard please!!!:rolleyes:

More powerful engines produce more vibr@tions @t lower revs so they invented @ expensive p@rt
to repl@ce once its fecked.

Maybe it is also cos it's a 5 pot rather than a 4 pot, which is therefore harder to balance. ;)

Not necessarily so. Using the Gradian system of measuring angles, invented by (I believe) the frogs, there are 400 degrees in a circle. Which makes calculating balance factors straight forward for a 5-pot. This geometry and trigonometry is used more in yurrup than in the uk, hence they have developed many 5-pot engines (and multiples of 5).
