Should accept reality, but anyone else have a problem drawing on hole 2? just idividualy it lets little air through and a bad noise.

Have had similar issues with some of mine on the lower notes. It's normally the ones you use to bend the most I've found. But that's why I buy cheap ones, I'd hate to have that happen to an expensive Monica

I can only speak for the specific Harmonica delivered to me.So far I have not encountered that problem.

I have had no such problem with my harp,I like the high notes .I love this harp and will order more of them.

Sounds like a faulty reed- maybe sticking in closed position. Been playing Sp20's for 20 years- no problems in lower holes until the harp is basically shot anyway. Consult a decent do-it-yourself repair video if you're into that. At 40 bucks for these harps, might be worth your while.

Try doing doing the draw 2 softer until you get a clear single note. May take a week or two. Have a several of them and no problems with them, usually a matter of technique and working with it to get the desired sound.

Mine has only filled up one time. I am currently not drawing air from outside, just exhausting to outside and it is working well.

Mine went flat pretty fast, but it may have just been a defect. Otherwise, I'd say go for it.

Only for a moment until I realize I'm pressing at the wrong angle. Sometimes I confuse the nozzle hole with the larger, more conspicuous charging hole. The nozzle won't fit there at all, but it's an easy mistake if I am distracted by talking, say. My best guess is you may be pressing at the wrong angle. Oh, and check that the circular cover is lined up over the charging hole. I hope your ptoblem has a simple fix like these.

When a harmonica leaks air, it not only takes more wind, it is not putting the air where it belongs. It's a mark of poor craftsmanship. If you hear air get a different harmonica.

My unit is new and I can't quite get 2 rounds out of it...probably about 30/32 holes

I had the same problem. I removed the plastic piece in the hole and it was a little better but I stopped using it. It was becoming too much of a hassle to deal with it.

I'm sorry to hear that but I don't have that issue with mine. I'm very pleased with the way my machine operates. Maybe check to make sure there are no clogs in the cover opening.

Same problem, but I just screw right through it and it works out fine. I recommend drilling pilot holes first to make things easier.

Great point. I took some wax paper and stuffed it through the hole and hoped it would be roughly in position so that when pressure was put on, it wouldn't matter if the wax paper was in the way, between the 2 layers. Or, if the hole is small, then just apply glue only around but not too close.

I would suggest you hold back a little to create a cleaner hole. Like a hot knife thru butter.

Just a note to everyone, I did try pushing it in surprisingly hard last night and it DID work.Please give your jack another try. What's the worst that could happen? Just push it in HARD until it's flush.

After the first few times you get a good sense as to how it's suppose to fit into the hole. That's where it's leaking from. Try putting the pitcher on without any water in it. That will give you an idea how it sits. I've got it down pretty good now but still have my moments. Once you get it mastered you're going to love it. You'll also find some other oddities along the way unless you use it everyday but I picked up on this right away and no problem now.

Funny! I tried it a for awhile, it did not work. Went back to it, it did not work. Finally I figured it out. Have you figured it out yet? A couple of things: 1) the pole pulls out to be longer. It should be as tall as you are. 2) it seems like it does not fit in hole. But, you have to push hard. 3) Look at picture on box. The parts will actually end up looking like the picture. (Smile)

Send it back. The hole just gets bigger. I had this happen to another mesh float. I had to throw it out.

Ha ha....we were actually going to suggest that, but didnt know how to phrase it. Good for you using your noggin....sometimes a bubble of air can form in the plumbing and it is hard to get it out. Guess we will have to add "sucking" to our technical must do list! But that is often all it takes in cases where water is not being disbursed. Sometimes things get disconnected or air bubbles form during the rough ride across the ocean. Glad to see it worked out for you...its a good little machine for the money.

Take off the silencer and see if you get the bubbles.. then if it works... take a a drill bit and see if the holes are clear... mine did the same thing (silencer was plugged ) and if still no bubbles move tthe plastic pc. (Strainer pc.) Back and forth twisting action until it starts to pull air... hope it helps if not let me know
