You can buy it online but it usually costs almost the same as a new one with the shipping charge. I suggest you buy a new one and keep your busted one for spare parts.
They are available in amazon.com Make sure you have the MS series so the parts will be compatible.

thanks 430nmtune. I know. but i was wondering if there are shops here locally who sells them. I cut my credit card years ago.  :-D Less chance to spend irresponsibly.  :-D

I bought my hohner G blues harp at JB ages ago, but i dont think they sell them there now-a-days. Reeds were broken while I was practicing my bend. hahahah! I  bought another one just early this year in HK (Tomy Lee) but was lost in Puerto Gallera last month. I had too much alcohol and lost it by the beach. Anyway, Do you know of any stores locally who sells them? Thanks!

thanks okives, will search for that store!

tama ka, iba talaga pag wood ang comb. iba ang tunog. warm. yun nga lang, malamang na mas madaling kapitan ng bacteria yun kasi wood. kaya dapat malinis ang bibig bago humalik sa instrumento.  :-D

i don't think even jb sold replacement reeds even when they were carrying hohners. harps are really scarce nowadays (locally). :-(
there are many online instructions on DIY harp repair. felt adventurous once and followed instructions on shaving little off a reed that sounded flat. nag-improve naman pro not as loud as when it was new. worn na ksi msayado.

i posted a request for harmonicas/harp mics earlier in a thread that had a poll on what musical instruments, gear etc... we'd like to have in a newly opened music shop. you might want to chime in para madami tayo. hehe. :-D
