“I received a great product that was just as described, and the shipping was very fast. The holder is well made and looks nice, plus the harp itself works as expected. Thank you!”

“My 11-year-old is really into unusual musical instruments and wanted to try a jaw harp. I surprised him with this one, and he absolutely loves it! Within minutes, he was making some cool sounds. I think it’s perfect for beginners, and I really appreciate the holder that comes with it.”

“I’m very pleased with this product. It has a nice sound, and I was able to start playing in no time!”

"As a beginner, I found the Grover Jaw Harp delightful and fun! It took a little time to figure out how to play it, but once I did, it was super easy. I love the unique sounds it produces!"

"When I bought this, I was feeling a bit nostalgic since my grandpa used to play a similar one. It's pretty basic in design, but that's okay; I didn’t want to spend too much. It only took me a minute to learn a simple rhythm, which was nice!"

"I really had high hopes for this jaw harp, but unfortunately, it just doesn't work well for me. No matter how I position my tongue or breath, it only makes the same tone. The tongue feels too stiff, and I don't get the sound I was hoping for."

"I bought this for my son, and he loves it! The sound is very clear and distinct. Just a tip: if you’re getting it for kids, remember to clean it regularly and check for chips. So far, so good!"

"I initially got this as a joke gift for my husband who wanted a jaw harp. To my surprise, he played it so much that it broke after a month! He had a blast jamming on it, so I ended up getting him a more sturdy harp, but this one is a great starter option!"

"As someone who's played jaw harps for years, I can say this Austrian design is fantastic! The closed design helps avoid the metal tongue hitting your teeth, and it’s made of properly tempered spring steel. It’s lightweight and stable, making it a great harp. I might buy a larger model next!"

"I recently got the Jaw Harp by MUARO P. Potkin, and it's been an interesting experience for me! The quality of the instrument is impressive; the craftsmanship is evident, and the dark wooden case adds a nice touch. Although I've had some challenges figuring it out, my husband has a knack for it, which encourages me to keep practicing. I love the sound it produces and am excited to develop my skills. Overall, I would recommend this jaw harp, especially for unique instrument enthusiasts!"

"I think this is a fun little instrument! While I'm not the best at playing it, the construction feels solid, and it sounds great when played right. It’s a good value, and I find it comfortable to hold. It may not be for everyone, but it's affordable enough for anyone to give it a try."

"What a neat little thing! I was able to play this within the first 30 seconds of opening it, and I’ve had fun ever since. After trying the Snoopy harp, which was disappointing, this one is definitely an actual instrument. The clever little case is easy to pocket, making it convenient for fun on the go, and it gets a good chuckle from those who have never seen one!"

"I find the Schwarz SH-12 Jaw Harp to be a weird but interesting instrument. I recommend watching a few tutorials on YouTube before using it to avoid accidentally dinging my teeth with the reed. Overall, it's been a fun hobby!"

"I bought this for my husband, and he is absolutely thrilled with it! The build quality is solid, and he's been able to create different sounds easily. The included instructions and pictures were very helpful for him as a beginner. I would definitely buy it again!"

"This jaw harp is a great addition to our band! The sound is decent, and it makes for a terrific gift. I think it's perfect for anyone looking to have some fun with music."

"I got my first Jew Harp to sound more 'hillbilly' around my friends. This harp has a better range and much better sound quality than others in the same price range."

"I needed a prop for my RenFaire character, and this harp was just right. It's smaller than others I've used, with a quieter volume, but it’s playable and sturdy enough to hold up during performances."

"We bought this harp for our son based on his Neurological Music Therapist's recommendation. It's significantly smaller than the other one, making it harder for him to use right now. However, once I got the hang of it, I found the tone to have some mellow, earthy undertones that I really liked."

"As a woman, I find it strange that there aren't more reviews for jaw harps. The Samurai model is a bit more challenging compared to the Sword, which I adore for its high pitch. The Samurai leans more towards bass, requiring a bit more practice to bring out the higher frequencies. For me, it's a form of meditation reminiscent of Mongolian and Siberian styles. I own several jaw harps and plan to buy more. Would I recommend it? Absolutely! Enjoy and elevate your playing!"

"I started with a simple $20 harp and then moved on to this one. The difference in quality is significant!"

"I bought this jaw harp as a Christmas gift for my husband, and he is really pleased with it. The holder that comes with it is a nice bonus."

"As a first-time jaw harp player, I was pleasantly surprised by the workmanship and quality sounds these harps produce. After a little practice, I found them easy to play and able to capture delicate vibrations with just my breath. They feel like high-quality instruments that were thoroughly tested."

"I had never used this type of jaw harp before, but I love the one-piece design and the awesome sound it makes. I've been playing them quite a bit, and so far, they have held up nicely. I did see some reviews about the leaf breaking, but I'm glad mine are still in great shape!"

"These jaw harps are incredibly easy to create sounds with. I find myself crafting my own music which I’m sure would drive my friends crazy. They are so enjoyable that I ended up ordering nine more for my friends. I highly recommend using them in the dark or alone until you get better!"

"This is the best jaw harp I own, producing the loudest sound with excellent craftsmanship!"

"I found the quality of this harp to be professional; the sound is pure and I’m very happy with both the harp and the seller!"

"This harp is a gorgeous piece; the craftsmanship shines through and I can easily pick out a tune after a little practice!"

"It took me a while to adjust, but I found the right spot on my teeth and lips. With some patience and practice, I can get a nice tone and good resonance!"

"At first, it took some time to get comfortable against my teeth, but now it's really fun to play. Just a heads up, if you have sensitive teeth, maybe try a harmonica instead!"

"This thing is awesome! I love whipping it out in random places and just going 'boing boing boing'!"
