  • what kind of jews harp is this. and what key is it in? I have an old one that is much deeper and its played off the teeth, it just doesnt sound as cool as yours. its yours played of the teeth or the lips?

  • @somesmallfry high A if I remember, played on the teeth. These are Black Fires made by Szylagyi in Hungary.

  • Where can you buy a kosher Jew's harp? :)

  • @Bram25 try my website (see channel page) or search for them on Ebay and you should find my shop!

  • I would get one, but I would end up chipping the whole of my front set of teeth. I'll stick to playing the didgeridoo, guitar and harmonica.

  • @dvdsmlprstylr . Well 2 options: wear a tooth guard like a boxer or use the type that are played off the teeth...

  • There are 2 main theories about the name Jew's Harp:

    1. it is just a misspelling of "Jaws Harp", deriving from the peculiar part of the body used to keep the instrument and to propagate its sound.

    2. this instrument was typical of the Jewish communities of central Europe, perhaps remotely imported from Eastern lands.

    No good being afraid of your own shade ;)
