[Harp-L] Leo Shi Bass harmonica

[Jonathan Ross <jross38@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I bought the chord harmonicas I mentioned in a previous post  
from the Jiyang Music Company, I also bought a few of their 2-row C/ 
C# Bass instruments.  These are really baritone range, being pitched  
an octave higher than the E-Bass from people like Hohner and Huang.   
That's not a negative, really, as these can function as both a  
somewhat higher bass and a nice low-melody instrument.  Indeed, while  
I have a lot of bass and baritone range harmonicas, these are easily  
my favorites and the ones that get the most play.

I was going to do an in-depth review like I did for the chord-harps,  
but really there's nothing I can say that Pat Missin didn't already  
cover in his review here:

The one thing is that the ciantrader website appears to be dead, so  
your best bet may be to do as I did and contact the company directly:

These are wonderful instruments, and really fun to play.
