The Jews Harp is an instrument of no rules yet an amazing amount of sounds and fun packed into an incredibly neat little package.

A small lyre-shaped folk instrument of uncertain age and origin that was commonly used in Europe in the Middle Ages.

The rounded part of the Jew's Harp is held between the thumb and forefinger of the left hand. The narrow part of the frame should be positioned on the teeth of the performer.

A small, bent, metal tongue inside the frame is then plucked by the finger of the performer to vibrate the tongue producing tones.

The origin of the name is unknown as it has no apparent connection to the Jewish people.

    Boinging as intended

    Ordered this bad little boy during the final years on Earth - 2020. It arrived promptly and after smacking my teeth a few times and using the instructions that were provided, I've been able to annoy my friends and family with exciting, bouncy glee. Highly recommending DidgeridooBreath to my friends and family, and will save for one of those premium looking didgeridoos next!

    A surprisingly loud little jaw harp!

    Compact but has some decent volume to it. You can really get some good tone variations out of it. And it really invites you to keep playing it! Great product, great service. Thanks again.

    Jew Harp-Small

    Posted by Greg on 8th Nov 2017

    I'm happy with both the small and medium Jew harps that arrived promptly and well packaged. They work a lot better than my Dear Old Dad's one I inherited. Good to have the two for a muck around with visitors and friends. Many who have never seen one before but recognize the twang. Of course I'm better then they are. Thanks, The Twang Master.

    My 7yr old son came home from school asking for a Jew Harp. I had never heard of it nor did I know where to get one from. I did a quick google search and found your website. To be honest I did not take a good look around your site, but the information on the Jew Harp was good. I found your site easy to order from and I was really pleased with how quickly my order was received.
