I just got an Easttop Forerunner yesterday and it's amazing. Not just for the price, but as an instrument as a whole. The tone and feel are really wonderful.
Hello and thank you for the nice review!I orded an Easttop brass 12 hole harmonica and the seller says that this harmonica has been upgraded, In order to prevent the brass from being oxidized and the brass Comb is nickel-plated, which can better protect the Comb. Do you know if this is true? Thank you very much
I have a good collection of East Top Chromatic harmonicas.What I miss is a 14 hole chromatic.Having come this far,Raat Top Co must consider making 14 holes Chromatics also.
I have their Low C 12 Hole.Number 1 go to for mellow Ballads.Incredible Air Tight and nice Big Tone.The Price is remarkable.It was shipped directly from the manufacturing facility.It was tested.My digital tuner confirms that.
Much like those two Brandon Power demonstrated. Its note range is like the 12-hole model shown except that it starts either at the G immediately below Middle C or the G in the same octave as Middle C. This "10" scores a 10 in the "Harmonica Olympic Games." In US Dollars, it's on Amazon for under $40.00.
Hello and thanks for the review! I have the black 12 hole version and like it a lot. What is the difference in the sound from the silver one (12 hole again)? Also, is there a difference in playing comfort and passing holes(material of the mouthpiece), between these two?
Nice video again. I decided to buy myself an East top 12 holes. But it's kind of confusing which one to buy since there are several models but not much info on the difference between them. My goal is to get a cheap one (12 holes) to carry around and not having to care too much. But it needs to be at least decent enough to have fun and play in tune. The Forerunner seems the cheapest 12 holes available. But is it a good buy? Or perhaps there is another model better for the same price? Your advice would help a lot.
I’ll make a prediction: Easttop will be the 1st Chromatic Harmonica Company to do away completely windsavers on all models and set free the shackles. They will create a construction model that will do that.Already their low priced models have them and they are airtight at the mouthpiece. The ability to play anytime anywhere the freedom without worrying if I just had a soda pop or anything else would be a complete relief.

I have one of the original Easttop brass harps w/o the silver plating. Does the silver on the comb make a difference in playing ability and performance and how much are the cost of this new harp? Btw-nice video!

Brother.... one year ago, I bought Easttop chromatic harmonica 1248 SR key of C from Amazon. Unfortunately the reeds 5, 8,9 are not properly tuned. I am not able to play any song properly. I am disappointed. I am from South India.

How is the 10 hole chromatic in C? I really want to play a chromatic but I can not afford a hohner one.

Olá ...qual é a diferença da KING DREAM 1248 ?
$382.99 for a 12 Hole Brass Comb and $935.41 for a 16 Hole Brass Comb is not what I call affordable.
you can choose our new chromatic harmonica EAP-12
brendan power!
A chromatic the size of a marine band.
You mean the 10 hole Chromatic
Gentilmente Sono disponibile tutte le tonalità..
Can you do any bending on this harp?
Like Brennan does? Or Stevie wonder does?
of course OK,sir

I own one.You will not be disappointed and it is airtight at the mouthpiece and no windsavers to worry about.Tone is bright and in tune.
@@douglasj.arcuri1370 I did buy one since I commented and, indeed, it is fabulous for the price.

Are they made in Hong Kong or mainland China?

How do I remove oil taste from new T008k? I play with tongue mostly, and the taste is unbearable to me!
hello, T008k should not have oil, where is the oil inT008k?

话说Asiabend怎么不生产了？
有生产，如需购买，可以联系BP
@@easttopharmonica2198 bp的官网上已经没有AB购买链接了。然后他推荐我直接入SD，也可以实现本调的全吸气，相对比AB实用。
@@あのサ1717 可以听BP的建议
But yeah abs one comes 100 dollar so might think of getting it.
Which is better? Unchained vs T008k vs T008L?
I CAN JUST SAY both of then has its character, T008L IS WITH VAVEL, SO airtightness is better。
@@easttopharmonica2198 thank u
You mean to say it is a half-valved diatonic harmonica like the ones Seydel and Suzuki make?@@easttopharmonica2198

It’s made in china. The metal could be poisonous
Most stuff in America was made in China- but the lead killing Americans... is coming from guns.

Same for me, I order 2 and both have problems on holes 9,10,11 and 12 with very poor results. I'm returning both of them and getting a 64x.
Warning: This is the worst harmonica I've ever owned. A quarter of the holes didn't work and made terrible noises! That's wasted money on junk!
