J.A. Harmonicas

Rick Epping

"I can honestly say I've never played a harmonica more powerful nor seen one constructed with better

precision and cleanliness as found in Joel's work. Highly recommended!"

Brendan Power - www.brendan-power.com

"I know from personal experience that Joel's custom work is top class, as I've played his harps and got him

to do embossing and reed work on the early X-Reed.com harps. He's smart, articulate, knowledgeable,

and everything he does is meticulous and well finished. To my mind Joel is the best of the new generation

harmonica customisers, so advanced at such a young age."

"Do you like music and especially harmonicas? Then you have to try Joel Anderssons amazing

instruments. Joels knowledge and curiosity of the instruments mechanical function is something special.

I agree with Brendan Power - Joel is the best of the new generation harmonica customizers!"

Dick Sjoeberg - www.masterharp.com

"I got to know Joel when he was 15 years old, since then we have spent countless of hours talking about

the secrets of customizing. 10 years later, Joel have reached the master level. Incredibly talented,

skilled, creative, both mechanical and progressed to become a masterful harmonica builder and

developer. My superlatives is not enough of how impressed I am by Joel Anderssons work, and sense of

details. Everything from comb manufacturing to tuning and reedwork. To my opinion he's one of the

best, if not THE best customizer in the whole world."

Mikael Bäckman - www.harpatwork.com

"I always thought that you had to make a choice: either a harp well set up for overblows or a harp you can

play blues on, with the heavy tongueslap techniques that come with the genre. Until I played a

J.A. Custom Harmoica. Joel's harps give me the best of two worlds. I no longer have the need to bring

two different set ups to the studio and my gigs. I love 'em!"
