Jews harp - chinese HoHo 5-set in case, khou xhiang

Thanks

Jew harp is really good for beginners I am already practicing everyday, the HoHo is a bit harder to play because it is a delicate and small piece, for my hand, I will get used to it. Delivery was fast and everything came preserved and well protected

One of the leaves seems thinner and less resistant than the others. You might think this would be the lowest note, with the largest cut tongue, but that is not the case. It’s already bending at its crease, and it seems I need to exercise more caution with this one leaf, which makes playing far less fun, as I’m constantly in my head. The spread of the leaves is awkward too. It seems like it would be easier on left handed people, so if that’s you, that’s a boon. It will probably take some practice, but so far I’m just dealing with hand cramps from trying to keep the leaves spread out well enough so they don’t touch each other. The tuning is good. A weird, dark selection of notes. But the notes are true, so the chords are harmonic. The wood container should have a string to keep the lid from getting lost. Instead, it’s just taped on. This will quickly lose its efficacy. Overall, I would not pay the same amount as I did for this (plus shipping was almost as much, and pretty slow to arrive) but it’s a toy in the toy box.
