  • the old blues harp players back in da day were notorious for taking elements out of pay phones before they left a motel or a town,lol!

  • A little awkward holding, but not bad, fairly light. Fits into mic stand with the clamp style holder, then you can cup easy for harp & vocals. Gonna build one cut down just for hand held playing. Mouth piece mic is active, so you would need to get power to it, ear piece is passive, makes it easy. 

  • So how would u hold dat comfortably while playing a harp?

    what happened wit the mouthpiece mic? was it broken?

    dat's pure crystal mic element(mouthpiece)

  • Nice Maddog!!! I'm also going to build a cut down version with just the ear piece, which is another option.

  • Thanks for the info man, I am gonna give this a lash :-)

  • Thanks guys, ez-pze to make. Ear piece is the mic, use the existing wires & hole for jack, chuck mouth piece side, except reverse caps as the mouth piece cap has a lot more holes. You need to put some foam behind ear piece with the mouth piece cap swap to keep in place. Sounds real down & dirty, will have clip up soon.

  • Someone's calling - oh it's some badass blues.... Neat idea!

  • Oh yea, it's got the MoJo thing goin' on man! Sounds good eh?
