>From my experience with teaching beginners I would say, that more than half
of them have problems to get a good sounding tone out of 2 Draw . I work
with C-harps and would like to know if on other harps it may be another
hole that gives troubles.
It has happened many times that people who bought a harp the first evening
want to bring it back the second evening because 2 Draw is broken...
I have a bag full of exercises to do with my students to prevent this
.
Especially women or kids with smaller heads seem to find it more difficult
to draw hole 2. So I suppose it has something to do with the size of the
buccal cavity (finally found the word in my dictionary).
