SCARLETT .. I think what BB is doing, simply put, is getting rid of a bunch of the Chord bars
so he has more strings ringing. You 'll notice, if you see any close-ups, that his harps have only six or so chord bars.I believe he brings a bunch of different harps, tuned to different keys.. the result being a much richer sound that lets him pick out melodies & chords simultaneously. He sure is great at it, no?
NGUYEN van thock... comparing James Taylor to Carlos Santana & saying one is better than the other is UTTERLY Ludicrous!! 1st of all, they are NOTHing alike stylistically...they could NOt be more different. They are BOTh great at what they do.. let's just leave it at that.This whole competitive thing is just plain Stooopid!!!
Oh, that's a George Orthey 'harp. George lives in Perry County, PA just north of Harrisburg. TOP OF THE LINE.

James Taylor is so much better than Carlos Santana. Brian Bowers, totally pwned.
