K&M Konig & Meyer 16415.000.55 Harmonica Holder - Industry Standard - Hands Free Harp Neck Brace - Sturdy Adjustable Frame - Professional Grade for all Musicians - German Made - Black

The folks at K&M must've read one of the previous reviews that suggested putting a star washer in the hinge joint because the one I received came with them. Together with the plenty-large (approx. 5/8") knobs, this rack stays tight and keeps the harmonica nice and secure and in a comfortable playing position. At least for me, and at least for now. And I don't foresee having any troubles with it in my lifetime. FYI, I'm what you might call a mediocre amateur who plays Neil Young and Bob Dylan style harmonica while also playing guitar for my own enjoyment and for my friends (you'd have to ask them if they enjoy it too!). I don't know, maybe if you play blues style you might put more pressure on the rack while playing. I wouldn't know, but this thing works great for me. Worlds better than the old piece of junk I had for 40 years before this one. I really like the design of the hinge joint. It has a piece of Delrin, or similar plastic, that serves as an anchor for the fixed end of the spring that holds the harp, which extends down to the hinge joint where it forms a "Y" with the steel part, and the piece that goes around your neck gets sandwiched between the two along with the star washer to form a non-slip joint. (I can't make heads nor tails of this description on re-reading, so I guess I'd better include a photo to show you what I mean.) The only two things I can think of as negatives are: 1 - I find it difficult to change from one harmonica to another while wearing the rack, which can be annoying since it seems like every song I know is in a different key and I end up changing harmonicas a lot between songs. This is mostly because of the strong spring tension that holds the harp securely though, so I can't really complain about it. 2 - The little beard-hairs just below my lower lip get caught between the harmonica and the rack once in a while, like when I try to change harmonicas without removing the rack from around my neck. OUCH! But it shouldn't be a problem unless you're a scraggly old aging hippie like I am. I just got this contraption yesterday though, and these minor annoyances might well resolve themselves with a little experience. They don't rise to the level of taking stars away from my rating anyway. Bottom line is that this thing does just what it's supposed to do for me and is comfortable to boot. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

I like the holder. Works very well.

I have been very happy with this rack. Feels sturdy and is easy to adjust

This is nice looking design, feel tough and it can last. Feel not heavy or light, fit for the harmonica (10 holes only, I don't have a 24 holes ones) don't effect the sound of the harmonica, good price, only flaw for me it is a bit small for my head and at times feel uncomfortable

User friendly

This holder is sturdy, easy to adjust and comfortable. Does what it needs to do and adjusts very easily. Wont go wrong with this one.

Great quality. Excellent price. Sturdy and solid construction. Functional Adaptability and Operational Durability. Very user-friendly in performing intended purpose of holding harmonica during utilization of other musical instruments.

I like this holder. I use it to hold 10 hole harps from a variety of manufacturers and it holds all of them securely even though it's not recommended for them.

Nice sturdy structure… harmonica is kept in place all the time. Good product from Germany..
