I know there are guys out there with many harp of all varieties, but I finally completed my a collection of all 12 keys! The last two where Ab and B, which I just finished building by repairing and retuning a dead G and A harps. I picked up a couple of the other uncommon ones, and the Jaw Harps, when I performed in Big River with Tuacahn - Broadway In The Desert (that was fun!). I am pretty happy, no more "oh I can't play in that key."
This is a photo of my now full case. I just had to share.

You need a bigger tip cup, that thing won't hold more 5 cents!

No, he didn't because there's no jaw harp on "Cripple Creek": it's Garth Husdon playing Clavinet through a wah-wah pedal that makes that sound.

@ rbeetsme hahaha yeah that tip cup is my guitar slide, it just made sense to incorporate it into this case. I didnt know know they made different keys of jaw harps I have only every seen bass, tenor etc...
@marcos I got tired of having to fix the cord I have not had one issue since, and that has been quite a few years now, I do have to be careful if I step on the cord it will rip it right out of my hands! I had a guitar player step on it once while i was playing! that was not good, I was not a happy man...
