Reply To: Some notes are difficult to blow after tuning
Alan, thank you for the answer.
I opened the melodica and haven’t any correlation between gaps and ease of blowing. So I took some pictures:

Should I try to lessen any gaps? I’m pretty sure that it was easier to blow most of the notes (except a few of the highest and maybe the lowest) before my intrusion.
And yes, I understand that Hohner Student is a low-end instrument for $25, but why not to try to improve it…
