The Jew's harp, jaw harp, mouth harp, Ozark harp, marranzano pancake, or Omaha Flapjack is thought to be one of the oldest musical instruments in the world [1]; a musician apparently playing it can be seen in a Chinese drawing from the 3rd century BC [2]. Despite its common English name, and the sometimes used Jew's trump, it has no particular connection with Judaism. Also it was found in Ancient Egypt, I am not asking, I am answering. Good day sir.

It's not a jaw harp or a mouth harp, it's a Jew's harp, and no amount of political correctness can change it.

@zePippin amen to that........has always sounded best with at least bass, guitar and drums laying down a bed of rhythm and some chords. This video was created about the first week i owned that camera in 2006 and was just experimenting. Thx for commenting.

@hankplow is it hard to play the jaw harp?

@zePippin Good question-many answers. With a good attitude and a good instrument a person could probably be able to enjoy some music in a short time. Developing breath and rhythm techniques might take a lifetime. Either way, I've found it has enriched my life and has enabled me to cross paths with some amazing people. A worthy adventure from my perspective.
