Frequently Asked Questions
The Session C has a slightly warmer, more mellow tone than the Special 20, which can be a bit brighter and more piercing. It’s a matter of personal preference.
While a wooden comb offers a bit more resonance, the plastic comb's resistance to moisture and warping makes it a practical and durable choice, especially for beginners.
The reeds are generally responsive and lend themselves well to bending, though they won't have the extreme flexibility of a high-end custom harp.
